Hm, yes, I guess I could made my :prescript a (defun) that calls the Python script and reads stdout, (message)'ing every line... Thanks for the pointer!

Yes... can't you just use a prescript like, er, :prescript (lambda () (message "Before fetching...")) or something? -- (domestic pets only, the antidote for overdose, milk.) bloggy blog: http://lars.ingebrigtsen.no ___ info-gnus-english mailing list info-gnus-english@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-gnus-english
Can a mail-sources :prescript communicate progress back to the user?
Hi, I am wondering whether there is any functionality for a :prescript in mail-sources to report progress back to the user - e.g. by messages being shown in the mini-buffer? Having IMAP access cut off recently, I now have to use a :prescript which connects to Microsoft Exchange Web Services and downloads emails. It takes a while for the script to scan the relevant folders, so it would be nice with some feedback like "Fetching from INBOX", "Fetching from tests", etc. Best regards, Adam -- "Do I really want to set this in Denmark?"
