Subject: `|' error in summary buffer
Date: Thu, 14 Mar 2002 08:38:17 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <ruoofhrp63q.fsf@billwlx.wolfram.com> (raw)

Unless my fingers are mis-remembering something, until very recently
typing `|' on an article in the summary buffer would give me a
minibuffer prompt letting me specify a shell command to run on the
article.  Now I get this nonsense about saving the article:

Debugger entered--Lisp error: (wrong-type-argument stringp nil)
  byte-code("\b.\b.ÆÇ!.	q.\n.\f.\x15.È. .\fÉ=.\x1f.Ê. .\r.\f\fË=.*.\x0e\r.\x0e.\x0fq.\b.\f!+." [gnus-default-article-saver gnus-article-buffer save-buffer gnus-save-article-buffer gnus-prompt-before-saving file error "No default saver is defined" default always nil t filename num gnus-number-of-articles-to-be-saved gnus-article-current-summary] 2)
  gnus-article-save(#<buffer  *Gnus Save*> nil 1)
  gnus-summary-save-article(nil t)
  gnus-summary-pipe-output(nil)
  call-interactively(gnus-summary-pipe-output)

----------------------------------------------------------------------

Here's what it's supposed to do:

| runs the command gnus-summary-pipe-output
   which is an interactive compiled Lisp function in `gnus-sum'.
It is bound to |, O p, <menu-bar> <Article> <Output> <Pipe through a filter>.
(gnus-summary-pipe-output &optional ARG)

Pipe the current article to a subprocess.
If N is a positive number, pipe the N next articles.
If N is a negative number, pipe the N previous articles.
If N is nil and any articles have been marked with the process mark,
pipe those articles instead.

Cheers -
