;;; Commentary:

;; This package enables you to read mail or articles in MH folders, or
;; articles saved by GNUS. In any case, the file names of mail or
;; articles must consist of only numeric letters.

;; Before using this package, you have to create a server specific
;; startup file according to the directory which you want to read. For
;; example, if you want to read mail under the directory named
;; `~/Mail', the file must be a file named `.newsrc-:Mail'. (There is
;; no way to specify hierarchical directory now.) In this case, the
;; name of the NNTP server passed to GNUS must be `:Mail'.

;;; Code:

(require 'nntp)

(defvar mhspool-list-directory-switches '("-R")
  "*Switches for `nntp-request-list' to pass to `ls' for gettting file lists.
One entry should appear on one line. You may need to add `-1' option.")

  "Version numbers of this version of MHSPOOL.")

(defvar mhspool-spool-directory "~/Mail"
  "Private mail directory.")

(defvar mhspool-current-directory nil
  "Current news group directory.")
