html buttons in pgnus 0.84?

html buttons in pgnus 0.84?

[Glenn Shiffer]

I've recently begun experimenting with pgnus and am having difficulty
getting it to give me an html button instead of displaying the code.

I have the browser function variable set to Netscape and have included 
the following in my .gnus (at Kai's suggestion):

(add-to-list 'mm-inline-media-tests
             '(text/html mm-inline-text nil))

Clickable links work fine.

Thanks for any suggestions and help.

Glenn

What happens if you also do the following?

(setq mm-user-automatic-display
      (remove "text/html" mm-user-automatic-display))
(add-to-list 'mm-user-automatic-external-display "text/html")

For me, Gnus now asks whether to save the HTML stuff.  Not quite what
we wanted, but maybe a start?

This seems to be way too complicated... :-|

Tried it and it's the same old thing- html code displayed in-line, no
button :(.

Just for mentioning I'm using pgnus .84 in xemacs 20.4 under Solaris 7 
(32 bit) on a Sparc 2.

And yes, I agree, this is way to complicated.  It's nice that gnus
will grok mime internally, but as things stand right now, it's a long
way from tm.

We'll just have to keep plugging away.  Which brings me to asking-
where can I get more information on the workings of pgnus/mime then is 
available in the FAQ and manual?

I think it's normal that development versions aren't documented that
well.  UTSL...  (Use The Source, Luke.)

This won't work.  What you want is:

(require 'cl)
(push '("text/html" mm-inline-text nil) mm-inline-media-tests)
