Getting decompression to work is as easy as adding (require 'jka-compr) to the beginning of your .emacs file. I had a problem in the beginning, where I loaded jka-compr too late, so I now have it first. When it's loaded, automatic decompression works perfectly fine. Compression is not done automatically however. I did apply (after some munging) the previous patch which does that, and might be able to make a new patch against the latest qgnus. -- [ Below is a random fortune, which is unrelated to the above message. ] Liar: one who tells an unpleasant truth. -- Oliver Herford
