M-x gnus We will assume this works - it generally does if your ~/.emacs and ~/.gnus.el are good :-). But 1. emacs -q 2. M-x load-library 3. ~/.emacs 4. M-x gnus will produce an error. You must do i. M-x load-library ii. ~/.gnus.el before step (4). We assume that the file ~/.emacs does not have the line (load-library "~/.gnus.el"). Is this simply a feature of the "-q" option or a bug?
