Starting Gnus
*************

   If your system administrator has set things up properly, starting
Gnus and reading news is extremely easy--you just type `M-x gnus' in
your Emacs.

   If you want to start Gnus in a different frame, you can use the
command `M-x gnus-other-frame' instead.

   If things do not go smoothly at startup, you have to twiddle some
variables.

Finding the News: Choosing a method for getting news.
The First Time: What does Gnus do the first time you start it?
The Server is Down: How can I read my mail then?
Slave Gnusii: You can have more than one Gnus active at a time.
Fetching a Group: Starting Gnus just to read a group.
New Groups: What is Gnus supposed to do with new groups?
Startup Files: Those pesky startup files--`.newsrc'.
Auto Save: Recovering from a crash.
The Active File: Reading the active file over a slow line Takes Time.
Startup Variables: Other variables you might change.
