Does anyone disagree with that? I didn't have time to try doc-view yet (and currently the trunk doesn't bootstrap for me; will look into this later), so I don't know if doc-view makes sense for attachments. Gnus wants to stay compatible with Emacs 21 and XEmacs 21.4. When adding doc-view specific entries, please do it in a compatible way. (Additionally, such non-bugfix changes should not go into the stable Gnus version, I think.) Bye, Reiner. -- ,,, (o o) ---ooO-(_)-Ooo--- | PGP key available | http://rsteib.home.pages.de/
