Easy Picons Picons Picon Useless Configuration
Gnus can display picons for you as you enter and leave groups and articles. It knows how to interact with three sections of the picons database. Namely, it can display the picons newsgroup pictures, author's face picture(s), and the authors domain. To enable this feature, you need to select where to get the picons from, and where to display them.
gnus-picons-database
|
The location of the picons database. Should point to a directory
containing the ` |
gnus-picons-piconsearch-url
|
The URL for the web picons search engine. The only currently known
engine is ` |
gnus-picons-display-where
|
Where the picon images should be displayed. It is |
gnus-picons-group-excluded-groups
|
Groups that are matched by this regexp won't have their group icons displayed. |
Note: If you set gnus-use-picons
to t
, it will set up your
window configuration for you to include the picons
buffer.
Now that you've made those decision, you need to add the following functions to the appropriate hooks so these pictures will get displayed at the right time.
gnus-article-display-picons
|
Looks up and displays the picons for the author and the author's domain
in the |
gnus-picons-article-display-x-face
|
Decodes and displays the X-Face header if present. This function
should be added to |
Note: You must append them to the hook, so make sure to specify 't'
for the append flag of add-hook
:
(add-hook 'gnus-article-display-hook 'gnus-article-display-picons t)
