I've spent the past week slowly coming up to speed with gnus. I'm at
the point where I can pretty much use it in a basic way and am wondering
why I haven't been using it for years.
I can't seem to figure out from the documentation or elsewhere a couple
things though:
1) I like topic mode. How do I make it the default mode on startup?
2) What is the difference between 'g' (Check for new news) and 'alt-g'
(Fetch new articles). 'alt-g' does what I want, can't seem to figure out
what 'g' is doing. A corrollary: How can I fetch new articles on gnus
startup?
3) How do I go about automatically fetching new articles on some
constant time interval? (Something with a gnus daemon...?)
Any pointers to documentation or outright answers very much appreciated.
