However, you can put it immediately after the call to > `save-buffer' in `gnus-dribble-save'. That's true. Some people are very secretive, though. There should be a way to specify the file permissions of the auto-saved dribble file. One does not want people to know that one is reading "comp.language.c++". :-) Hm. Perhaps there is no way to do this in a straightforward manner? Perhaps I could just write the dribble buffer to a file when I open the buffer and set the file permissions then? Yes, that should work.. -- "Yes. The journey through the human heart would have to wait until some other time."
