Startup Variables
=================

`gnus-load-hook'
     A hook that is run while Gnus is being loaded.  Note that this
     hook will normally be run just once in each Emacs session, no
     matter how many times you start Gnus.

`gnus-startup-hook'
     A hook that is run after starting up Gnus successfully.

`gnus-check-bogus-newsgroups'
     If non-`nil', Gnus will check for and delete all bogus groups at
     startup.  A "bogus group" is a group that you have in your
     `.newsrc' file, but doesn't exist on the news server.  Checking for
     bogus groups can take quite a while, so to save time and resources
     it's best to leave this option off, and do the checking for bogus
     groups once in a while from the group buffer instead (*note Group
     Maintenance::.).

`gnus-inhibit-startup-message'
     If non-`nil', the startup message won't be displayed.  That way,
     your boss might not notice that you are reading news instead of
     doing your job as easily.

`gnus-no-groups-message'
     Message displayed by Gnus when no groups are available.
