Gnus/5.09 (Gnus v5.9.0) Emacs/21.2 |
I concur. I also use VirtualWin,
(http://w1.457.telia.com/~u45706979/), so what I did was start gnus in
another frame, and place that frame in another virtualwin, and all
seems well. Gnus/BBDB works like a champ. I my *main* NTEmacs frame,
I'm running ECB, where I do all my source code editting.
Thanks for the advice.
