;;; Commentary:

;; This is the gnus-sync.el package.

;; Put this in your startup file (~/.gnus.el for instance)

;; possibilities for gnus-sync-backend:
;; Tramp over SSH: /ssh:user@host:/path/to/filename
;; Tramp over IMAP: /imaps:user@yourhosthere.com:/INBOX.test/filename
;; ...or any other file Tramp and Emacs can handle...

;; (setq gnus-sync-backend `("/remote:/path.gpg") ; will use Tramp+EPA if loaded
;;       gnus-sync-global-vars `(gnus-newsrc-last-checked-date)
;;       gnus-sync-newsrc-groups `("nntp" "nnrss")
;;       gnus-sync-newsrc-vars `(read marks))

;; TODO:

;; - after gnus-sync-read, the message counts are wrong
