It could become "global" if we would speak about asynchronous file operations in general, like asynchronous `copy-file'. But that I do not implement (yet), I've started with `write-region' and `insert-file-contents'. And here we have an associated buffer, and could use its modeline. Same for doing asynchronous operations on a gnus article buffer. > Bye, > Tassilo Best regards, Michael.
