gnus-kill-file-mode vanished

[Emanuel Berg]

I had this in my .emacs and it worked great, until for
no (apparent) reason it stopped. It says there isn't any
such function, and that's true, I can't get
documentation, nor invoke it with M-x.

Gnus seems to work just fine all the same. I guess I can
use Elisp mode for kill files so it is not a big deal. I
just can't figure out how it happened? (Did I *dream*
there was such a mode?!)

(add-to-list 'magic-mode-alist
               '("; kill" . gnus-kill-file-mode))

Try this :

(require 'gnus-load)

I have

(load "gnus")

- is there a difference? - anyway, it always worked.

But, (require 'gnus-load) gives

> (file-error "Cannot open load file" "gnus-load")

What is going on? Is my file system disintegrating
before my eyes?

require is less heavy than load, it can avoid reading the same file
several times when it is called at several places in the code.

gnus-load is also less heavy and just loads a few entry points in Gnus
code IIRC.

I was suggesting to load Gnus in a way or another but it seems you
already have something for this.

Looks like a load-path problem, something has changed on your system,
maybe.

No other idea for now...
