Right, "If IDLE is t, only call each time Emacs has been idle for TIME." from, ,----[ C-h v gnus-demon-handlers RET ] | gnus-demon-handlers is a variable defined in `gnus-demon.el'. | Its value is nil | | Documentation: | Alist of daemonic handlers to be run at intervals. | Each handler is a list on the form | | (FUNCTION TIME IDLE) | | FUNCTION is the function to be called. TIME is the number of | `gnus-demon-timestep's between each call. | If nil, never call. If t, call each `gnus-demon-timestep'. | | If IDLE is t, only call each time Emacs has been idle for TIME. | If IDLE is a number, only call when Emacs has been idle more than | this number of `gnus-demon-timestep's. | If IDLE is nil, don't care about idleness. | If IDLE is a number and TIME is nil, then call once each time | Emacs has been idle for IDLE `gnus-demon-timestep's. | | You can customize this variable. | | [back] `---- -- Brady _______________________________________________ info-gnus-english mailing list info-gnus-english@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-gnus-english
