SL> - hack-package-index.el [2 hack-package-index.el SL> <application/octet-stream>] Hello Steven, all! I am having trouble looking at ascii attachments in (version) "XEmacs 21.0 \"Pyrenean-pre2\" [Lucid] (i386-pc-win32) of Sun Oct 11 1998 on TWILIGHT" (gnus-version) "Gnus v5.6.44" Both when typing e and v I get Wrote c:\tmp\TMDCAHZP External method is starting... Error starting: "c:\\export\\home\\tmp\\CVSroot\\xemacs-20\\lib-src\\tm-file", "Exec format error" Wrote c:\tmp\TMDCAUjV External method is starting... Error starting: "c:\\export\\home\\tmp\\CVSroot\\xemacs-20\\lib-src\\tm-file", "Exec format error" since tm-file is not available on windows-nt. How can I view these attachments within Gnus? I'd hate to bring up the issue why hack-package-index.el [2 hack-package-index.el <application/octet-stream>] is attached as application/octet-stream in the first place :-) Thanks for any suggestions.
