Mel,
	Thanks for the reply.  I figured out that I don't have to run  
gnatsd in order to have send-pr etc... manipulate my local gnats  
database.  I will be using your tip about $MAIL_AGENT

It is a credit to the gnats developers that a lowly hacker (like me)  
can find the gnats-adm and the rest of my local database to be self- 
documenting.  I have been using gnats for about 4 days now and find it  
invaluable.  Please keep up your fantastic work

gnats + arch + emacs = pure joy :)
