-;; This file contain support for storing articles in SOUP format from
-;; within Gnus. Support for reading SOUP packets is provided in
-;; `nnsoup.el'.
-
-;; SOUP is a format for offline reading of news and mail. See the
-;; file `soup12.zip' in one of the Simtel mirrors
-;; (e.g. `ftp.funet.fi') for the specification of SOUP.
-
-;; Only a subset of the SOUP protocol is supported, and the minimal
-;; conformance requirements in the SOUP document is *not* meet.
-;; Most annoyingly, replying and posting are not supported.
-
-;; Insert
-;; (require 'gnus-soup)
-;; in your `.emacs' file to enable the SOUP support.
-
-;; Type `V o s' to add articles to the SOUP packet.
-;; Use a prefix argument or the process mark to add multiple articles.
-
-;; The variable `gnus-soup-directory' should point to the directory
-;; where you want to store the SOUP component files. You must
-;; manually `zip' the directory to generate a conforming SOUP packet.
-
-;; Add `nnsoup' to `gnus-secondary-select-methods' in order to read a
-;; SOUP packet. The variable `nnmail-directory' should point to the
-;; directory containing the unziped SOUP packet.
-
-;; Check out `uqwk' or `yarn' for two alterative solutions to
-;; generating or reading SOUP packages respectively, they should both
-;; be available at a Simtel mirror near you. There are plenty of
-;; other SOUP-aware programs available as well, look in the group
-;; `alt.usenet.offline-reader' and its FAQ for more information.
-
-;; Since `gnus-soup.el' does not fulfill the minimal conformance
-;; requirements, expect some problems when using other SOUP packeges.
-;; More importantly, the author haven't tested any of them.
