But without that "killer-code" its almost impossible to read emails generated in google-groups in your gmail-inbox as they have a light background and an almost light text if you're using a theme with a black or grey background. I don't understand exactly what the code does or how it works, but having it in my .gnus has made the unintelligible gmail emails intelligible! And that’s all I'm going to say on it :) Sharon. -- A taste of linux = http://www.sharons.org.uk my git repo = https://bitbucket.org/boudiccas/dots TGmeds = http://www.tgmeds.org.uk Debian testing, fluxbox 1.3.5, emacs 24.3.92.1
