There might me some differences between emacs and XEmacs I'm not > aware of. In fact org-gnus wasn't even loaded. The reason was that XEmacs' `defvaralias' (line 41) doesn't accept an optional third argument as Emacs does. Once this had been fixed, org-gnus was loaded without problems and worked right away. While testing the new version I've noticed that links are now made up of # instead of #
, at least for nnml groups. This means that links created with the new version are not usable with older versions. And this might be a problem since the same set of org files is often used on different computers with possibly different versions of org-mode. Ulf
