Subject: run agent in -batch mode reading a batch rc file instead of .gnus
Date: Tue, 10 Sep 2002 01:11:56 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <m3u1kyz3lx.fsf@newsguy.com> (raw)
The following message is a courtesy copy of an article
that has been posted to gnu.emacs.gnus as well.
How can I run gnus in batch mode and force it to read some other rc
file instead of gnus.
I want a different setup for this batch run.
I know that if a file named ~/.gnus.el is present it will be read in
preference to .gnus, which comes pretty close, but then the file needs
deleting when batch is completed.
Seems like a sloppy way to do it, there could be moments when the
batch is running as webll as a live gnus.
Maybe a conditional at the start of .gnus that knows if its a batch
session reading .gnus. If batch is found then a redirect to some
other file... Is that possible?
The easiest would be if I could tell gnus not to read ~/.gnus,
then I could just load what ever I wanted.
