iSpell on W2K?

I have found the page with instructions on how to get iSpell running
on W2K, and was wondering wehere I can find just the cygwin.dll and
mount.exe I need? The Cygwin homepage seems only to offer a setup for
the entire Cygwin installation, while I need just these 2 files. A
Googling did not help much either? Are they available independently,
or do I need to install Cygwin just to get them?

Try installing aspell instead, there are up-to-date Windows binaries on
their site aspell.sourceforge.net and it works (at least on windows)
much better than ispell. To tell Emacs, that you use aspell rather than
ispell say

(setq ispell-program-name "aspell")

in .emacs.

Did you ever realize how much text fits in eighty columns? If you now consider
that a signature usually consists of up to four lines, this gives you enough
space to spread a tremendous amount of information with your messages. So seize
this opportunity and don't waste your signature with bullshit nobody will read.

OK, I understand how it works now. I don't understand why certain
servers are marked as read-only or not editable. And why the news
server is seen as primary select methods and all the others as
secondary. But I can live without understanding this :)

But this works:

,----
| (add-hook 'gnus-message-setup-hook
|    '(lambda ()
|       (if (not (message-news-p))
|    (mml-secure-message-sign-pgpmime))))

How does one get access to permanently hidden topic in Group buffer?


Hi All,

I have hidden a topic in the *Group* buffer with
C-u T h

How do I show that topic again?

Thanks in advance,

With C-u T s (gnus-topic-show-topic)

The docstring for that function is a bit misleading IMO

,----[ C-h f gnus-topic-show-topic RET ]
| `gnus-topic-show-topic' is an interactive compiled Lisp function
|   -- loaded from "gnus-topic"
| (gnus-topic-show-topic &optional PERMANENT)
| 
| Documentation:
| Show the hidden topic.
| If PERMANENT, make it stay shown in subsequent sessions as well.
`----

because PERMANENT means also to show topics which have been hidden with
the permanent flag.  Should we improve it?

Completely untested: It might work to bind the option in the group (or
topic) parameters, see <info://gnus/Group+Parameters>.

Ah, it is indeed confusing how Gnus uses the term newsgroup for mail
groups, too.  Sometimes.

Oh, well.
