What I would like is a command to do the opposite of 't', i.e. one step
back. I find it most logical to trace back to the beginning and then read
the thread in the original order.

Also a tree-like index structure for the threads would be nice.

I found a bug with the index stuff by the way. If your index contains
article numbers with different lengths (e.g going from 9 to 10) when
going back to the index (with the = command from an article) the cursor
positions sometimes in the wron place in the index. This is
because it searches for something like "1" and matches on "10".

The code is in group-index:

	      (if (re-search-forward (concat "^ *" article-current) nil t)

Changing this to 

	      (if (re-search-forward
			 (concat "^ *" article-current "[^0-9]") nil t)

helps a lot.

Sure would like to have it!  I use crypt++ and Dave Gillespie's info

to say e.g.,

rcs: (rcs.info.z)

Since crypt++ should intercept calls to find-file, I thought this

Date: 24 Jan 93 23:21:34 GMT

This message is to announce the release of c++-mode.el version 2.261
for GNU emacs and derivatives (Epoch, Lucid emacs).  This version
should replace all previous versions, including the last public
release 2.195.  Differences between 2.195 and 2.261 are briefly
outlined below. c++-mode.el can be used to edit C++, K&R C, and ANSI C
code.

As usual, I'm not posting the lisp file since it should be pretty easy
for just about everyone to get it via anonymous ftp or mail-server.
2.261 should be available soon on the elisp archive, but you can also
aftp it from ftp.cme.nist.gov:pub/gnu/c++-mode.el.Z. For those of you
without aftp, send the following message to library@cme.nist.gov:

        send pub/gnu/c++-mode.el.Z

Be sure that you include a valid reply path. When you receive the
response, you need to remove the mail headers and other cruft,
uudecode, then uncompress.  For more information about the
mail-server, send the message `help' (sans quotes) to the library
address.

Read the comments at the top of the file for information about getting
on the beta testers list, and submitting bug reports.

	Here is the least useful elisp program I know of, written to
prove that no task, no matter how trivial, is too minor to warrant a
special elisp function. I needed it to sort through a large (10000+
line) ls-lR file of my hard drive. I wanted a way to sort out all
those things that were in directories named "bin" or subdirs thereof
(say, /usr/bin/X11 or something) and list just them, and then do dirs
named "etc" and subdirs, then "lib", and so on, so that I could have a
more or less complete listing of all the executable binaries on my
system, and all the libs, etc. But I didn't want to do it by hand, no
sir, I wanted the machine to do it for me. So here it is, and if
anyone out there actually uses it, I will be shocked. But, SOMEDAY,
you will be sorting through an ls-lR file, and then you'll be glad you
downloaded this. Enjoy!

If you have access to Dave Gillespie's info elisp source
;; Info package for Emacs  --  Dave Gillespie's version 1.05 of 3/8/92.
;; Copyright (C) 1985, 1986 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
there may be a relatively simple solution. I found that by modifying
the Info-suffix-list to: 

(defvar Info-suffix-list '( (".info" . nil)
			    (".Z" . "uncompress -c %s")
			    (".z" . "gunzip")
			    (".zip" . "gunzip")
			    (".Y" . "unyabba")
			    (".info.Z" . "uncompress -c %s")
			    (".info.z" . "gunzip")
			    (".info.zip" . "gunzip")
			    (".info.Y" . "unyabba") )
  "List of file name suffixes and associated decoding commands.
Each entry should be (SUFFIX . STRING); if STRING contains %s, that is
changed to name of the file to decode, otherwise the file is given to
the command as standard input.  If STRING is nil, no decoding is done.")

works fine. Entries in localdir are of the form:

* AWK: (gawk). Awk (v2.14).
* GZIP: (gzip). Zip/Unzip, a compress replacement (v0.8.1).

and the files in the directory where info is set to look are:
% ls diff* gawk*
diff.info-1.z  diff.info.z    gawk.info-3.z  gawk.info-6.z  gawk.info.z
diff.info-2.z  gawk.info-1.z  gawk.info-4.z  gawk.info-7.z
diff.info-3.z  gawk.info-2.z  gawk.info-5.z  gawk.info-8.z

I'm not an expert, but this seems simple enough and works fine for me.
I've yet to run across a case where it fails, but I haven't tested it
exhaustively. Does anyone see any potential problems?

One ugly way around it I tried is to sym-link gzip to uncompress and
zcat, and to rename the gzipped info-files with a capital Z extension.
One should be able to modify info.el to uncompress (or gunzip) files 
with a .z or .zip extension, but who has the time ...

However, I've got quite a lot of articles in the rmail format that I'd

Is there such a thing as a rmail -> mh convertor?

Is there any chance of seeing some of the functionality of GNUS2
(first and foremost (IMHO), the ablity to use the Netnews Overview
files, either locally or via NNTP) in GNUS 3.14.? or GNUS 3.? ?

Or even a merge of the two?

Best Regards,

i don't know, but according to masanobu umeda, there are speedup
changes in 3.14.3, and i gave him scott ballantyne's address so it's
possible.

does anybody have a way of grouping (a la vm) header lines in the
summary (subject) buffer?  it preserves the order of the first of each
set of related headers, but moves succeeding headers up to group with
previous headers.

(i'd like to be able to sort headers by mark, then pull related
subjects later in the buffer up so that they are adjacent even if they
have different marks.  i'm doing this for something i call the keeping
feature of gnus-kpc.  grouping can be accomplished with a complicated
sort function but i'd rather have the sort and the grouping separate.)
