|
||||
|
||||
* Supported Emacs versions The following Emacs versions are supported by No
|
||||
Gnus:
|
||||
|
||||
** Emacs 22 and up
|
||||
** XEmacs 21.4
|
||||
** XEmacs 21.5
|
||||
** SXEmacs
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
* Installation changes
|
||||
|
||||
** Upgrading from previous (stable) version if you have used No Gnus.
|
||||
|
||||
If you have tried No Gnus (the unstable Gnus branch leading to this
|
||||
release) but went back to a stable version, be careful when upgrading to
|
||||
this version. In particular, you will probably want to remove the
|
||||
'~/News/marks' directory (perhaps selectively), so that flags are read
|
||||
from your '~/.newsrc.eld' instead of from the stale marks file, where
|
||||
this release will store flags for nntp. See a later entry for more
|
||||
information about nntp marks. Note that downgrading isn't safe in
|
||||
general.
|
||||
|
||||
** Incompatibility when switching from Emacs 23 to Emacs 22 In Emacs 23,
|
||||
Gnus uses Emacs's new internal coding system 'utf-8-emacs' for saving
|
||||
articles drafts and '~/.newsrc.eld'. These files may not be read
|
||||
correctly in Emacs 22 and below. If you want to use Gnus across
|
||||
different Emacs versions, you may set 'mm-auto-save-coding-system' to
|
||||
'emacs-mule'.
|
||||
|
||||
** Lisp files are now installed in '.../site-lisp/gnus/' by default. It
|
||||
defaulted to '.../site-lisp/' formerly. In addition to this, the new
|
||||
installer issues a warning if other Gnus installations which will shadow
|
||||
the latest one are detected. You can then remove those shadows manually
|
||||
or remove them using 'make remove-installed-shadows'.
|
||||
|
||||
** The installation directory name is allowed to have spaces and/or tabs.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
* New packages and libraries within Gnus
|
||||
|
||||
** New version of 'nnimap'
|
||||
|
||||
'nnimap' has been reimplemented in a mostly-compatible way. See the Gnus
|
||||
manual for a description of the new interface. In particular,
|
||||
'nnimap-inbox' and the client side split method has changed.
|
||||
|
||||
** Gnus includes the Emacs Lisp SASL library.
|
||||
|
||||
This provides a clean API to SASL mechanisms from within Emacs. The user
|
||||
visible aspects of this, compared to the earlier situation, include
|
||||
support for DIGEST-MD5 and NTLM. *Note Emacs SASL: (sasl)Top.
|
||||
|
||||
** ManageSieve connections uses the SASL library by default.
|
||||
|
||||
The primary change this brings is support for DIGEST-MD5 and NTLM, when
|
||||
the server supports it.
|
||||
|
||||
** Gnus includes a password cache mechanism in password.el.
|
||||
|
||||
It is enabled by default (see 'password-cache'), with a short timeout of
|
||||
16 seconds (see 'password-cache-expiry'). If PGG is used as the PGP back
|
||||
end, the PGP passphrase is managed by this mechanism. Passwords for
|
||||
ManageSieve connections are managed by this mechanism, after querying the
|
||||
user about whether to do so.
|
||||
|
||||
** Using EasyPG with Gnus When EasyPG, is available, Gnus will use it
|
||||
instead of PGG. EasyPG is an Emacs user interface to GNU Privacy Guard.
|
||||
*Note EasyPG Assistant user's manual: (epa)Top. EasyPG is included in
|
||||
Emacs 23 and available separately as well.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
* Changes in group mode
|
||||
|
||||
** Symbols like 'gcc-self' now have the same precedence rules in
|
||||
'gnus-parameters' as other "real" variables: The last match wins instead
|
||||
of the first match.
|
||||
|
||||
** Old intermediate incoming mail files ('Incoming*') are deleted after a
|
||||
couple of days, not immediately. *Note Mail Source Customization::.
|
||||
(New in Gnus 5.10.10 / No Gnus 0.8)
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
* Changes in summary and article mode
|
||||
|
||||
** There's now only one variable that determines how HTML is rendered:
|
||||
'mm-text-html-renderer'.
|
||||
|
||||
** Gnus now supports sticky article buffers. Those are article buffers that
|
||||
are not reused when you select another article. *Note Sticky Articles::.
|
||||
|
||||
** Gnus can selectively display 'text/html' articles with a WWW browser with
|
||||
'K H'. *Note MIME Commands::.
|
||||
|
||||
** International host names (IDNA) can now be decoded inside article bodies
|
||||
using 'W i' ('gnus-summary-idna-message'). This requires that GNU Libidn
|
||||
(<https://www.gnu.org/software/libidn/>) has been installed.
|
||||
|
||||
** The non-ASCII group names handling has been much improved. The back ends
|
||||
that fully support non-ASCII group names are now 'nntp', 'nnml', and
|
||||
'nnrss'. Also the agent, the cache, and the marks features work with
|
||||
those back ends. *Note Non-ASCII Group Names::.
|
||||
|
||||
** Gnus now displays DNS master files sent as text/dns using dns-mode.
|
||||
|
||||
** Gnus supports new limiting commands in the Summary buffer: '/ r'
|
||||
('gnus-summary-limit-to-replied') and '/ R'
|
||||
('gnus-summary-limit-to-recipient'). *Note Limiting::.
|
||||
|
||||
** You can now fetch all ticked articles from the server using 'Y t'
|
||||
('gnus-summary-insert-ticked-articles'). *Note Summary Generation
|
||||
Commands::.
|
||||
|
||||
** Gnus supports a new sort command in the Summary buffer: 'C-c C-s C-t'
|
||||
('gnus-summary-sort-by-recipient'). *Note Summary Sorting::.
|
||||
|
||||
** S/MIME now features LDAP user certificate searches. You need to
|
||||
configure the server in 'smime-ldap-host-list'.
|
||||
|
||||
** URLs inside OpenPGP headers are retrieved and imported to your PGP key
|
||||
ring when you click on them.
|
||||
|
||||
** Picons can be displayed right from the textual address, see
|
||||
'gnus-picon-style'. *Note Picons::.
|
||||
|
||||
** ANSI SGR control sequences can be transformed using 'W A'.
|
||||
|
||||
ANSI sequences are used in some Chinese hierarchies for highlighting
|
||||
articles ('gnus-article-treat-ansi-sequences').
|
||||
|
||||
** Gnus now MIME decodes articles even when they lack "MIME-Version" header.
|
||||
This changes the default of 'gnus-article-loose-mime'.
|
||||
|
||||
** 'gnus-decay-scores' can be a regexp matching score files. For example,
|
||||
set it to '\\.ADAPT\\'' and only adaptive score files will be decayed.
|
||||
*Note Score Decays::.
|
||||
|
||||
** Strings prefixing to the 'To' and 'Newsgroup' headers in summary lines
|
||||
when using 'gnus-ignored-from-addresses' can be customized with
|
||||
'gnus-summary-to-prefix' and 'gnus-summary-newsgroup-prefix'. *Note To
|
||||
From Newsgroups::.
|
||||
|
||||
** You can replace MIME parts with external bodies. See
|
||||
'gnus-mime-replace-part' and 'gnus-article-replace-part'. *Note MIME
|
||||
Commands::, *note Using MIME::.
|
||||
|
||||
** The option 'mm-fill-flowed' can be used to disable treatment of
|
||||
format=flowed messages. Also, flowed text is disabled when sending
|
||||
inline PGP signed messages. *Note Flowed text: (emacs-mime)Flowed text.
|
||||
(New in Gnus 5.10.7)
|
||||
|
||||
** Now the new command 'S W' ('gnus-article-wide-reply-with-original') for a
|
||||
wide reply in the article buffer yanks a text that is in the active
|
||||
region, if it is set, as well as the 'R'
|
||||
('gnus-article-reply-with-original') command. Note that the 'R' command
|
||||
in the article buffer no longer accepts a prefix argument, which was used
|
||||
to make it do a wide reply. *Note Article Keymap::.
|
||||
|
||||
** The new command 'C-h b' ('gnus-article-describe-bindings') used in the
|
||||
article buffer now shows not only the article commands but also the real
|
||||
summary commands that are accessible from the article buffer.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
* Changes in Message mode
|
||||
|
||||
** Gnus now defaults to saving all outgoing messages in per-month nnfolder
|
||||
archives.
|
||||
|
||||
** Gnus now supports the "hashcash" client puzzle anti-spam mechanism. Use
|
||||
'(setq message-generate-hashcash t)' to enable. *Note Hashcash::.
|
||||
|
||||
** You can now drag and drop attachments to the Message buffer. See
|
||||
'mml-dnd-protocol-alist' and 'mml-dnd-attach-options'. *Note MIME:
|
||||
(message)MIME.
|
||||
|
||||
** The option 'message-yank-empty-prefix' now controls how empty lines are
|
||||
prefixed in cited text. *Note Insertion Variables: (message)Insertion
|
||||
Variables.
|
||||
|
||||
** Gnus uses narrowing to hide headers in Message buffers. The 'References'
|
||||
header is hidden by default. To make all headers visible, use '(setq
|
||||
message-hidden-headers nil)'. *Note Message Headers: (message)Message
|
||||
Headers.
|
||||
|
||||
** You can highlight different levels of citations like in the article
|
||||
buffer. See 'gnus-message-highlight-citation'.
|
||||
|
||||
** 'auto-fill-mode' is enabled by default in Message mode. See
|
||||
'message-fill-column'. *Note Message Headers: (message)Various Message
|
||||
Variables.
|
||||
|
||||
** You can now store signature files in a special directory named
|
||||
'message-signature-directory'.
|
||||
|
||||
** The option 'message-citation-line-format' controls the format of the
|
||||
"Whomever writes:" line. You need to set
|
||||
'message-citation-line-function' to
|
||||
'message-insert-formatted-citation-line' as well.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
* Changes in Browse Server mode
|
||||
|
||||
** Gnus' sophisticated subscription methods are now available in Browse
|
||||
Server buffers as well using the variable
|
||||
'gnus-browse-subscribe-newsgroup-method'.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
* Changes in back ends
|
||||
|
||||
** The nntp back end stores article marks in '~/News/marks'.
|
||||
|
||||
The directory can be changed using the (customizable) variable
|
||||
'nntp-marks-directory', and marks can be disabled using the (back end)
|
||||
variable 'nntp-marks-is-evil'. The advantage of this is that you can
|
||||
copy '~/News/marks' (using rsync, scp or whatever) to another Gnus
|
||||
installation, and it will realize what articles you have read and marked.
|
||||
The data in '~/News/marks' has priority over the same data in
|
||||
'~/.newsrc.eld'.
|
||||
|
||||
** You can import and export your RSS subscriptions from OPML files. *Note
|
||||
RSS::.
|
||||
|
||||
** IMAP identity (RFC 2971) is supported.
|
||||
|
||||
By default, Gnus does not send any information about itself, but you can
|
||||
customize it using the variable 'nnimap-id'.
|
||||
|
||||
** The 'nnrss' back end now supports multilingual text. Non-ASCII group
|
||||
names for the 'nnrss' groups are also supported. *Note RSS::.
|
||||
|
||||
** Retrieving mail with POP3 is supported over SSL/TLS and with StartTLS.
|
||||
|
||||
** The nnml back end allows other compression programs beside 'gzip' for
|
||||
compressed message files. *Note Mail Spool::.
|
||||
|
||||
** The nnml back end supports group compaction.
|
||||
|
||||
This feature, accessible via the functions 'gnus-group-compact-group' ('G
|
||||
z' in the group buffer) and 'gnus-server-compact-server' ('z' in the
|
||||
server buffer) renumbers all articles in a group, starting from 1 and
|
||||
removing gaps. As a consequence, you get a correct total article count
|
||||
(until messages are deleted again).
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
* Appearance
|
||||
|
||||
** The tool bar has been updated to use GNOME icons. You can also customize
|
||||
the tool bars: 'M-x customize-apropos RET -tool-bar$' should get you
|
||||
started. (Only for Emacs, not in XEmacs.)
|
||||
|
||||
** The tool bar icons are now (de)activated correctly in the group buffer,
|
||||
see the variable 'gnus-group-update-tool-bar'. Its default value depends
|
||||
on your Emacs version.
|
||||
|
||||
** You can change the location of XEmacs's toolbars in Gnus buffers. See
|
||||
'gnus-use-toolbar' and 'message-use-toolbar'.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
* Miscellaneous changes
|
||||
|
||||
** New user option 'gnus-rcvstore-options' provides a way to
|
||||
specify additional options when saving messages to an MH folder.
|
||||
|
||||
** Having edited the select-method for the foreign server in the server
|
||||
buffer is immediately reflected to the subscription of the groups which
|
||||
use the server in question. For instance, if you change
|
||||
'nntp-via-address' into 'bar.example.com' from 'foo.example.com', Gnus
|
||||
will connect to the news host by way of the intermediate host
|
||||
'bar.example.com' from next time.
|
||||
|
||||
** The 'all.SCORE' file can be edited from the group buffer using 'W e'.
|
||||
|
||||
** You can set 'gnus-mark-copied-or-moved-articles-as-expirable' to a
|
||||
non-'nil' value so that articles that have been read may be marked as
|
||||
expirable automatically when copying or moving them to a group that has
|
||||
auto-expire turned on. The default is 'nil' and copying and moving of
|
||||
articles behave as before; i.e., the expirable marks will be unchanged
|
||||
except that the marks will be removed when copying or moving articles to
|
||||
a group that has not turned auto-expire on. *Note Expiring Mail::.
|
||||
|
||||
** NoCeM support has been removed.
|
||||
|
||||
** Carpal mode has been removed.
|
||||
