trigger a 'slrnpull --post-only' event when posting article

trigger a 'slrnpull --post-only' event when posting article

[Joseph Le-Phan]

Hello,

As my local news spool is fetched via slrnpull, is it possible to
trigger a 'slrnpull --post-only' event when posting an article
(atm, the article is sent to the out.going directory, and sent
cron-periodically)

Also, if all my groups have 0 unread messages, by default, i don't get a
listing of the groups (only the topics are visible.) Is it possible to
configure gnus to somehow show all groups (despite their being 0 unread
messages) when gnus is launched?

Thankyou

100% untested...

(defun my-slrnpull-post-only (&optional dont-check)
  (interactive)
  (when (or dont-check
	    (message-news-p))
    (gnus-message 5 "Posting news...")
    (shell-command "slrnpull --post-only.")))

(add-hook 'message-sent-hook 'my-slrnpull-post-only)

,----[ (info "(gnus)Group Parameters") ]
| `visible'
|      If the group parameter list has the element `(visible . t)', that
|      group will always be visible in the Group buffer, regardless of
|      whether it has any unread articles.
| 
|      This parameter cannot be set via `gnus-parameters'. See
|      `gnus-permanently-visible-groups' as an alternative.

,----[ (info "(gnus)Misc Group Stuff") ]
| `gnus-permanently-visible-groups'
|      Groups matching this regexp will always be listed in the group
|      buffer, whether they are empty or not.

Bye, Reiner.

I must've missed the faq entry somehow. Thanks for letting me know, though.
