@cindex nnslashdot
@uref{http://slashdot.org/, Slashdot} is a popular news site, with
lively discussion following the news articles. @code{nnslashdot} will
let you read this forum in a convenient manner.
The easiest way to read this source is to put something like the
following in your @file{~/.gnus.el} file:
@lisp
(setq gnus-secondary-select-methods
'((nnslashdot "")))
@end lisp
This will make Gnus query the @code{nnslashdot} back end for new comments
and groups. The @kbd{F} command will subscribe each new news article as
a new Gnus group, and you can read the comments by entering these
groups. (Note that the default subscription method is to subscribe new
groups as zombies. Other methods are available (@pxref{Subscription
Methods}).
If you want to remove an old @code{nnslashdot} group, the @kbd{G DEL}
command is the most handy tool (@pxref{Foreign Groups}).
When following up to @code{nnslashdot} comments (or posting new
comments), some light @acronym{HTML}izations will be performed. In
particular, text quoted with @samp{> } will be quoted with
@samp{blockquote} instead, and signatures will have @samp{br} added to
the end of each line. Other than that, you can just write @acronym{HTML}
directly into the message buffer. Note that Slashdot filters out some
@acronym{HTML} forms.
The following variables can be altered to change its behavior:
@table @code
@item nnslashdot-threaded
Whether @code{nnslashdot} should display threaded groups or not. The
default is @code{t}. To be able to display threads, @code{nnslashdot}
has to retrieve absolutely all comments in a group upon entry. If a
threaded display is not required, @code{nnslashdot} will only retrieve
the comments that are actually wanted by the user. Threading is nicer,
but much, much slower than unthreaded.
@item nnslashdot-login-name
@vindex nnslashdot-login-name
The login name to use when posting.
@item nnslashdot-password
@vindex nnslashdot-password
The password to use when posting.
@item nnslashdot-directory
@vindex nnslashdot-directory
Where @code{nnslashdot} will store its files. The default is
@file{~/News/slashdot/}.
@item nnslashdot-active-url
@vindex nnslashdot-active-url
The @acronym{URL} format string that will be used to fetch the
information on news articles and comments. The default is@*
@samp{http://slashdot.org/search.pl?section=&min=%d}.
@item nnslashdot-comments-url
@vindex nnslashdot-comments-url
The @acronym{URL} format string that will be used to fetch comments.
@item nnslashdot-article-url
@vindex nnslashdot-article-url
The @acronym{URL} format string that will be used to fetch the news
article. The default is
@samp{http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=%s&mode=nocomment}.
@item nnslashdot-threshold
@vindex nnslashdot-threshold
The score threshold. The default is -1.
@item nnslashdot-group-number
@vindex nnslashdot-group-number
The number of old groups, in addition to the ten latest, to keep
updated. The default is 0.
