ADAPT file name on win and *nix

ADAPT file name on win and *nix

[Olexandr Sydorchuk]

Hi,
Im using unison to sync my pers data, where News/ are sync too. But on
windows ADAPT files are named differn then *nix 
win    nntp+news.gmane.org_gmane.comp.lib.agar.general.ADAPT
*nix   nntp+news.gmane.org:gmane.comp.lib.agar.general.ADAPT
                          ^
   problem here-----------|

On win-nt ADAPT file name cannot have symbol ":" in file name, so I have
too ADAPTS files after sync :(.
I was look on gnus source, but my experience in lisp not so good. So I
need halp know hove to set on unix file name "_" instead ":".

Set `nnheader-file-name-translation-alist' to the value it has on
windows on both.

Then new files should use "_" instead of ":".  If you need to rename
the ":" files, I'd suggest to use `M-x dired RET' and `M-x
wdired-change-to-wdired-mode RET'.

Bye, Reiner.
