| Interaction with other modes
| ============================
|
| Dired
| -----
|
| `gnus-dired-minor-mode' provided some useful functions for dired
| buffers. It is enabled with
| (add-hook 'dired-mode-hook 'turn-on-gnus-dired-mode)
|
| `C-c C-m C-a'
| Send dired's marked files as an attachment (`gnus-dired-attach').
| You will be prompted for a message buffer.
|
| `C-c C-m C-l'
| Visit a file according to the appropriate mailcap entry
| (`gnus-dired-find-file-mailcap'). With prefix, open file in a new
| buffer.
|
| `C-c C-m C-p'
| Print file according to the mailcap entry (`gnus-dired-print'). If
| there is no print command, print in a PostScript image.

This feature is new in the 5.10 series of Gnus, so you probably need
to upgrade your Gnus (5.10.6 is the latest stable release).
Bye, Reiner.
