Hi!
Some websites I use, mainly through Gnus, happen to sometimes be down.
This is not a problem when I use `g' in Gnus, as I can cancel the
process by hitting C-g.
However, with the gnus-demon, this retrieval is not cancelable, and,
worst, get my Emacs stuck.
For example, the following can cause Emacs to not respond:
(run-with-timer 1 nil (lambda ()
(url-retrieve "http://20minutes.fr" 'ignore)))
if 20minutes.fr does not respond.
Is there a (even Q&D) solution ?
