| 10 | * Changes in Oort Gnus | 10 | * Installation changes |
| 11 | 11 | ||
| 12 | ** `F' (`gnus-article-followup-with-original') and `R' | 12 | ** Upgrading from previous (stable) version if you have used Oort. |
| 13 | (`gnus-article-reply-with-original') only yank the text in the region if the | ||
| 14 | region is active. | ||
| 15 | 13 | ||
| 16 | ** `gnus-group-read-ephemeral-group' can be called interactively, using `G M'. | 14 | If you have tried Oort (the unstable Gnus branch leading to this |
| 15 | release) but went back to a stable version, be careful when upgrading to | ||
| 16 | this version. In particular, you will probably want to remove all | ||
| 17 | `.marks' (nnml) and `.mrk' (nnfolder) files, so that flags are read from | ||
| 18 | your `.newsrc.eld' instead of from the `.marks'/`.mrk' file where this | ||
| 19 | release store flags. See a later entry for more information about | ||
| 20 | marks. Note that downgrading isn't save in general. | ||
| 17 | 21 | ||
| 18 | ** In draft groups, `e' is now bound to `gnus-draft-edit-message'. | 22 | ** Lisp files are now installed in `.../site-lisp/gnus/' by default. It |
| 19 | Use `B w' for `gnus-summary-edit-article' instead. | 23 | defaulted to `.../site-lisp/' formerly. In addition to this, the new |
| 24 | installer issues a warning if other Gnus installations which will shadow | ||
| 25 | the latest one are detected. You can then remove those shadows manually | ||
| 26 | or remove them using `make remove-installed-shadows'. | ||
| 20 | 27 | ||
| 21 | ** The revised Gnus FAQ is included in the manual. | 28 | ** New `make.bat' for compiling and installing Gnus under MS Windows |
| 22 | See the info node "Frequently Asked Questions". | ||
| 23 | 29 | ||
| 24 | ** Upgrading from previous (stable) version if you have used Oort. | 30 | Use `make.bat' if you want to install Gnus under MS Windows, the first |
| 31 | argument to the batch-program should be the directory where `xemacs.exe' | ||
| 32 | respectively `emacs.exe' is located, iff you want to install Gnus after | ||
| 33 | compiling it, give `make.bat' `/copy' as the second parameter. | ||
| 25 | 34 | ||
| 26 | If you have tried Oort (the unstable Gnus branch leading to this | 35 | `make.bat' has been rewritten from scratch, it now features automatic |
| 27 | release) but went back to a stable version, be careful when upgrading | 36 | recognition of XEmacs and GNU Emacs, generates `gnus-load.el', checks if |
| 28 | to this version. In particular, you will probably want to remove all | 37 | errors occur while compilation and generation of info files and reports |
| 29 | .marks (nnml) and .mrk (nnfolder) files, so that flags are read from | 38 | them at the end of the build process. It now uses `makeinfo' if it is |
| 30 | your ~/.newsrc.eld instead of from the .marks/.mrk file where this | 39 | available and falls back to `infohack.el' otherwise. `make.bat' should |
| 31 | release store flags. See a later entry for more information about | 40 | now install all files which are necessary to run Gnus and be generally a |
| 32 | marks. Note that downgrading isn't safe in general. | 41 | complete replacement for the `configure; make; make install' cycle used |
| 42 | under Unix systems. | ||
| 33 | 43 | ||
| 34 | ** Article Buttons | 44 | The new `make.bat' makes `make-x.bat' and `xemacs.mak' superfluous, so |
| 45 | they have been removed. | ||
| 35 | 46 | ||
| 36 | More buttons for URLs, mail addresses, Message-IDs, Info links, man pages and | 47 | ** `~/News/overview/' not used. |
| 37 | Emacs or Gnus related references, see the info node "Article Buttons". The | ||
| 38 | variables `gnus-button-*-level' can be used to control the appearance of all | ||
| 39 | article buttons, see the info node "Article Button Levels". | ||
| 40 | 48 | ||
| 41 | ** Dired integration | 49 | As a result of the following change, the `~/News/overview/' directory is |
| 50 | not used any more. You can safely delete the entire hierarchy. | ||
| 42 | 51 | ||
| 43 | `gnus-dired-minor-mode' installs key bindings in dired buffers to send a file | 52 | ** `(require 'gnus-load)' |
| 44 | as an attachment (`C-c C-m C-a'), open a file using the approriate mailcap | ||
| 45 | entry (`C-c C-m C-l'), and print a file using the mailcap entry (`C-c C-m | ||
| 46 | C-p'). See the info node "Other modes". | ||
| 47 | 53 | ||
| 54 | If you use a stand-alone Gnus distribution, you'd better add `(require | ||
| 55 | 'gnus-load)' into your `~/.emacs' after adding the Gnus lisp directory | ||
| 56 | into load-path. | ||
| 48 | 57 | ||
| 49 | ** Gnus can display RSS newsfeeds as a newsgroup. To get started do `B | 58 | File `gnus-load.el' contains autoload commands, functions and variables, |
| 50 | nnrss RET RET' in the Group buffer. | 59 | some of which may not be included in distributions of Emacsen. |
| 51 | 60 | ||
| 52 | ** Single-part yenc encoded attachments can be decoded. | ||
| 53 | 61 | ||
| 54 | ** Picons | 62 | |
| 55 | The picons code has been reimplemented to work in Emacs 21 -- some of | 63 | * New packages and libraries within Gnus |
| 56 | the previous options have been removed or renamed. | ||
| 57 | 64 | ||
| 58 | Picons are small "personal icons" representing users, domain and | 65 | ** The revised Gnus FAQ is included in the manual, *Note Frequently Asked |

| 68 | ** TLS wrapper shipped with Gnus | ||
| 61 | 69 | ||
| 62 | http://www.cs.indiana.edu/picons/ftp/index.html | 70 | TLS/SSL is now supported in IMAP and NNTP via `tls.el' and GNUTLS. The |
| 71 | old TLS/SSL support via (external third party) `ssl.el' and OpenSSL | ||
| 72 | still works. | ||
| 63 | 73 | ||
| 64 | and point `gnus-picon-databases' to that location. | 74 | ** Improved anti-spam features. |
| 75 | |||
| 76 | Gnus is now able to take out spam from your mail and news streams using | ||
| 77 | a wide variety of programs and filter rules. Among the supported | ||
| 78 | methods are RBL blocklists, bogofilter and white/blacklists. Hooks for | ||
| 79 | easy use of external packages such as SpamAssassin and Hashcash are also | ||
| 80 | new. *Note Thwarting Email Spam::. | ||
| 81 | |||
| 82 | ** Gnus supports server-side mail filtering using Sieve. | ||
| 83 | |||
| 84 | Sieve rules can be added as Group Parameters for groups, and the | ||
| 85 | complete Sieve script is generated using `D g' from the Group buffer, | ||
| 86 | and then uploaded to the server using `C-c C-l' in the generated Sieve | ||
| 87 | buffer. *Note Sieve Commands::, and the new Sieve manual *Note Top: | ||
| 88 | (sieve)Top. | ||
| 65 | 89 | ||
| 66 | ** If the new option `gnus-treat-body-boundary' is `head', a boundary | 90 | |
| 67 | line is drawn at the end of the headers. | 91 | |
| 92 | * Changes in group mode | ||
| 93 | |||
| 94 | ** `gnus-group-read-ephemeral-group' can be called interactively, using `G | ||
| 95 | M'. | ||
| 68 | 96 | ||
| 69 | ** Retrieval of charters and control messages | 97 | ** Retrieval of charters and control messages |
| 98 | |||
| 70 | There are new commands for fetching newsgroup charters (`H c') and | 99 | There are new commands for fetching newsgroup charters (`H c') and |
| 71 | control messages (`H C'). | 100 | control messages (`H C'). |
| 72 | 101 | ||
| 73 | ** Delayed articles | 102 | ** The new variable `gnus-parameters' can be used to set group parameters. |
| 74 | You can delay the sending of a message with `C-c C-j' in the Message | ||
| 75 | buffer. The messages are delivered at specified time. This is useful | ||
| 76 | for sending yourself reminders. Setup with (gnus-delay-initialize). | ||
| 77 | 103 | ||
| 78 | ** If `auto-compression-mode' is enabled, attachments are automatically | 104 | Earlier this was done only via `G p' (or `G c'), which stored the |
| 79 | decompressed when activated. | 105 | parameters in `~/.newsrc.eld', but via this variable you can enjoy the |
| 106 | powers of customize, and simplified backups since you set the variable | ||
| 107 | in `~/.gnus.el' instead of `~/.newsrc.eld'. The variable maps regular | ||
| 108 | expressions matching group names to group parameters, a'la: | ||
| 109 | (setq gnus-parameters | ||
| 110 | '(("mail\\..*" | ||

| 114 | (to-group . "\\1")))) | ||
| 80 | 115 | ||
| 81 | ** If the new option `nnml-use-compressed-files' is non-nil, | 116 | ** Unread count correct in nnimap groups. |
| 82 | the nnml back end allows compressed message files. | ||
| 83 | 117 | ||
| 84 | ** Signed article headers (X-PGP-Sig) can be verified with `W p'. | 118 | The estimated number of unread articles in the group buffer should now |
| 119 | be correct for nnimap groups. This is achieved by calling | ||
| 120 | `nnimap-fixup-unread-after-getting-new-news' from the | ||
| 121 | `gnus-setup-news-hook' (called on startup) and | ||
| 122 | `gnus-after-getting-new-news-hook'. (called after getting new mail). If | ||
| 123 | you have modified those variables from the default, you may want to add | ||
| 124 | `nnimap-fixup-unread-after-getting-new-news' again. If you were happy | ||
| 125 | with the estimate and want to save some (minimal) time when getting new | ||
| 126 | mail, remove the function. | ||

| 96 | the summary buffer is shown and updated as it's being built. | ||
| 97 | 135 | ||

| 99 | opposed to old but unread messages). | 137 | instead of real group names in 5.8. Users who customize these variables |
| 138 | should change those regexps accordingly. For example: | ||
| 139 | ("^han\\>" euc-kr) -> ("\\(^\\|:\\)han\\>" euc-kr) | ||

| 102 | Gcc articles as read. | ||

| 104 | ** The nndoc back end now supports mailman digests and exim bounces. | 142 | |
| 143 | * Changes in summary and article mode | ||
| 105 | 144 | ||
| 106 | ** Gnus supports RFC 2369 mailing list headers, and adds a number of | 145 | ** `F' (`gnus-article-followup-with-original') and `R' |

| 216 | using a wide variety of programs and filter rules. Among the supported | ||
| 217 | methods are RBL blocklists, bogofilter and white/blacklists. Hooks | ||
| 218 | for easy use of external packages such as SpamAssassin and Hashcash | ||
| 219 | are also new. | ||

| 257 | buffers. Also, each individual MIME part can be printed using `p' on | ||
| 258 | the MIME button. | ||

| 264 | specs are supported. The extended format specs look like `%u&foo;', | ||
| 265 | which invokes function `gnus-user-format-function-FOO'. Because `&' is | ||
| 266 | used as the escape character, old user defined format `%u&' is no longer | ||

| 244 | variables such as `gnus-message-archive-group' should no longer | ||
| 245 | contain quote characters to make groups containing SPC work. Also, if | ||
| 246 | you are using the string "nnml:foo, nnml:bar" (indicating Gcc into two | ||
| 247 | groups) you must change it to return the list ("nnml:foo" "nnml:bar"), | ||
| 248 | otherwise the Gcc: line will be quoted incorrectly. Note that | ||
| 249 | returning the string "nnml:foo, nnml:bar" was incorrect earlier, it | ||
| 250 | just didn't generate any problems since it was inserted directly. | ||
| 251 | 275 | ||

| 277 | a', and `/ x' (`gnus-summary-limit-to-{subject,author,extra}') | ||
| 278 | respectively, the result will be to display all articles that do not | ||
| 279 | match the expression. | ||
| 253 | 280 | ||

| 262 | the server in `gnus-select-method' was agentized by the default, and the | ||
| 263 | agent was disabled by default. When the agent is enabled, headers are | ||
| 264 | now also retrieved from the Agent cache instead of the backends when | ||
| 265 | possible. Earlier this only happened in the unplugged state. You can | ||
| 266 | enroll or remove servers with `J a' and `J r' in the server buffer. | ||
| 267 | Gnus will not download articles into the Agent cache, unless you | ||
| 268 | instruct it to do so, though, by using `J u' or `J s' from the Group | ||
| 269 | buffer. You revert to the old behaviour of having the Agent disabled | ||
| 270 | by customizing `gnus-agent'. Note that putting `(gnus-agentize)' in | ||

| 459 | ** Gnus supports PGP (RFC 1991/2440), PGP/MIME (RFC 2015/3156) and | 436 | |
| 460 | S/MIME (RFC 2630-2633). | 437 | * Changes in back ends |
| 461 | 438 | ||
| 462 | It needs an external S/MIME and OpenPGP implementation, but no | 439 | ** Gnus can display RSS newsfeeds as a newsgroup. *Note RSS::. |
| 463 | additional lisp libraries. This add several menu items to the | ||
| 464 | Attachments menu, and C-c RET key bindings, when composing messages. | ||
| 465 | This also obsoletes `gnus-article-hide-pgp-hook'. | ||
| 466 | 440 | ||
| 467 | ** Gnus inlines external parts (message/external). | 441 | ** The nndoc back end now supports mailman digests and exim bounces. |
| 468 | 442 | ||
| 469 | ** MML (Mime compose) prefix changed from `M-m' to `C-c C-m'. | 443 | ** Gnus supports Maildir groups. |
| 470 | 444 | ||
| 471 | This change was made to avoid conflict with the standard binding of | 445 | Gnus includes a new back end `nnmaildir.el'. *Note Maildir::. |
| 472 | `back-to-indentation', which is also useful in message mode. | ||
| 473 | 446 | ||
| 474 | ** The default for message-forward-show-mml changed to symbol best. | 447 | ** The nnml and nnfolder back ends store marks for each groups. |
| 475 | 448 | ||
| 476 | The behaviour for the `best' value is to show MML (i.e., convert MIME | 449 | This makes it possible to take backup of nnml/nnfolder servers/groups |
| 477 | to MML) when appropriate. MML will not be used when forwarding signed | 450 | separately of `~/.newsrc.eld', while preserving marks. It also makes it |
| 478 | or encrypted messages, as the conversion invalidate the digital | 451 | possible to share articles and marks between users (without sharing the |
| 479 | signature. | 452 | `~/.newsrc.eld' file) within e.g. a department. It works by storing the |
| 453 | marks stored in `~/.newsrc.eld' in a per-group file `.marks' (for nnml) | ||
| 454 | and `GROUPNAME.mrk' (for nnfolder, named GROUPNAME). If the | ||
| 455 | nnml/nnfolder is moved to another machine, Gnus will automatically use | ||
| 456 | the `.marks' or `.mrk' file instead of the information in | ||
| 457 | `~/.newsrc.eld'. The new server variables `nnml-marks-is-evil' and | ||
| 458 | `nnfolder-marks-is-evil' can be used to disable this feature. | ||
| 480 | 459 | ||
| 481 | ** Bug fixes. | ||
| 482 | 460 | ||
| 483 | 461 | ||
| 484 | * Changes in Pterodactyl Gnus (5.8/5.9) | 462 | * Appearance |
| 485 | 463 | ||
| 486 | The Gnus NEWS entries are short, but they reflect sweeping changes in | 464 | ** The menu bar item (in Group and Summary buffer) named "Misc" has been |
| 487 | four areas: Article display treatment, MIME treatment, | 465 | renamed to "Gnus". |
| 488 | internationalization and mail-fetching. | ||
| 489 | 466 | ||
| 490 | ** The mail-fetching functions have changed. See the manual for the | 467 | ** The menu bar item (in Message mode) named "MML" has been renamed to |
| 491 | many details. In particular, all procmail fetching variables are gone. | 468 | "Attachments". Note that this menu also contains security related |
| 469 | stuff, like signing and encryption (*note Security: (message)Security.). | ||
| 492 | 470 | ||
| 493 | If you used procmail like in | 471 | ** The tool bars have been updated to use GNOME icons in Group, Summary and |
| 472 | Message mode. You can also customize the tool bars. This is a new | ||
| 473 | feature in Gnus 5.10.9. (Only for Emacs, not in XEmacs.) | ||
| 494 | 474 | ||
| 495 | (setq nnmail-use-procmail t) | 475 | ** The tool bar icons are now (de)activated correctly in the group buffer, |
| 496 | (setq nnmail-spool-file 'procmail) | 476 | see the variable `gnus-group-update-tool-bar'. Its default value |
| 497 | (setq nnmail-procmail-directory "~/mail/incoming/") | 477 | depends on your Emacs version. This is a new feature in Gnus 5.10.9. |
| 498 | (setq nnmail-procmail-suffix "\\.in") | ||
| 499 | 478 | ||
| 500 | this now has changed to | 479 | |
| 480 | * Miscellaneous changes | ||
| 501 | 481 | ||
| 502 | (setq mail-sources | 482 | ** `gnus-agent' |
| 503 | '((directory :path "~/mail/incoming/" | ||
| 504 | :suffix ".in"))) | ||
| 505 | 483 | ||
| 506 | More information is available in the info doc at Select Methods -> | 484 | The Gnus Agent has seen a major updated and is now enabled by default, |
| 507 | Getting Mail -> Mail Sources | 485 | and all nntp and nnimap servers from `gnus-select-method' and |
| 486 | `gnus-secondary-select-method' are agentized by default. Earlier only | ||
| 487 | the server in `gnus-select-method' was agentized by the default, and the | ||
| 488 | agent was disabled by default. When the agent is enabled, headers are | ||
| 489 | now also retrieved from the Agent cache instead of the back ends when | ||
| 490 | possible. Earlier this only happened in the unplugged state. You can | ||
| 491 | enroll or remove servers with `J a' and `J r' in the server buffer. | ||
| 492 | Gnus will not download articles into the Agent cache, unless you | ||
| 493 | instruct it to do so, though, by using `J u' or `J s' from the Group | ||
| 494 | buffer. You revert to the old behavior of having the Agent disabled | ||
| 495 | with `(setq gnus-agent nil)'. Note that putting `(gnus-agentize)' in | ||
| 496 | `~/.gnus.el' is not needed any more. | ||
| 508 | 497 | ||
| 509 | ** Gnus is now a MIME-capable reader. This affects many parts of | 498 | ** Gnus reads the NOV and articles in the Agent if plugged. |
| 510 | Gnus, and adds a slew of new commands. See the manual for details. | ||
| 511 | 499 | ||

| 513 | many parts of Gnus to summarize here, and adds many new variables. | 501 | the Agent, it won't get downloaded once more. `(setq gnus-agent-cache |
| 502 | nil)' reverts to the old behavior. | ||
| 514 | 503 | ||

| 516 | called to position point. | ||
