@c Obviously this is only a very rudimentary draft. We put it in the
|

@c repository anyway hoping that it might annoy someone enough to fix
|
||||
@c it. ;-) Fixing only a paragraph also is appreciated.

@section Dependencies
|
||||
|
||||
The Gnus distribution contains a lot of libraries that have been written
|
||||
for Gnus and used intensively for Gnus. But many of those libraries are
|
||||
useful on their own. E.g., other Emacs Lisp packages might use the
|
||||
@acronym{MIME} library @xref{Top, ,Top, emacs-mime, The Emacs MIME
|
||||
Manual}.

@code{rfc1843-gnus-setup} seem to be useful only for Gnus. Maybe this

function should be relocated to remove dependencies on Gnus. Other

minor dependencies: @code{gnus-newsgroup-name} could be eliminated by

using an optional argument to @code{rfc1843-decode-article-body}.

@subsection message
|
||||
|
||||
All message composition from Gnus (both mail and news) takes place in
|
||||
Message mode buffers. Message mode is intended to be a replacement for
|
||||
Emacs mail mode. There should be no Gnus dependencies in
|
||||
@file{message.el}. Alas it is not anymore. Patches and suggestions to
|
||||
remove the dependencies are welcome.
|
||||
|
||||
@c message.el requires nnheader which requires gnus-util.
|
||||
|
||||
@subsection Emacs @acronym{MIME}
|
||||
|
||||
The files @file{mml*.el} and @file{mm-*.el} provide @acronym{MIME}
|
||||
functionality for Emacs.
|
||||
|
||||
@acronym{MML} (@acronym{MIME} Meta Language) is supposed to be
|
||||
independent from Gnus. Alas it is not anymore. Patches and suggestions
|
||||
to remove the dependencies are welcome.
|
||||
|
||||
@subsection Gnus backends
|
||||
|
||||
The files @file{nn*.el} provide functionality for accessing NNTP
|
||||
(@file{nntp.el}), IMAP (@file{nnimap.el}) and several other Mail back
|
||||
ends (probably @file{nnml.el}, @file{nnfolder.el} and
|
||||
@file{nnmaildir.el} are the most widely used mail back ends).
|
||||
|
||||
@c mm-uu requires nnheader which requires gnus-util. message.el also
|
||||
@c requires nnheader.
