Thanks for your efforts, Karl.  It would be very nice to have only a
single source of the FAQ.

Could you elaborate which programs and/or libraries are required to
run this program?  I don't know anything about Scheme.

I can only find the following files related to "mzscheme" on my system
(SuSE 9.2):

/usr/lib/swig1.3/mzscheme$ file *
mzrun.swg:     ASCII C program text
mzscheme.swg:  ASCII C program text
precommon.swg: ASCII text
std_common.i:  ASCII C++ program text
[...]
std_vector.i:  ASCII C++ program text
typemaps.i:    ASCII C program text

I didn't find any matches for those (using the package information
search).

Bye, Reiner.

PS: Could you please send me the resulting `gnus-faq.texi'?  Either on
    the list or by PM.
