Strange. What does it say when you hit `?'? > Could the "end of file during parsing" be corruption in the > ~/.newsrc.eld file? That's my only (possibly pretty far-fetched) > guess. I think, if it was corrupted it would error as soon as gnus tries to read it the first time and not only with this one specific group. Some more guesses: - Do you have (gnus-compile) in your ~/.gnus.el? If so, comment it out and restart emacs. Fire up Gnus, do something and hit `s' in *Group* so that it saves the ~/.newsrc.eld. Restart emacs and gnus and try to enter rec.arts.sf.written. I think, you still get an error but maybe a bit more informative. - Do you have a special gnus-summary-line-format set for that group, e.g., via gnus-parameters? Maybe that's somehow broken? - Did you use a newer version of emacs once? If so, maybe the (gnus-compile) compiled something in ~/.newsrc.eld to byte-code that's not understood by emacs 22.
