gnus dir file is bogus

.gnus repository:
http://superdave.socom.com/gnus/

I would like the zombie-page to contain an URL to the source of the
latest version of gnus or some explanation on where to find it.

A way to continue editing the latest Message composition.

facep is not declared.
Implement new "From " search.
Install mh-e.
No link to red gnus from ding page.
Include a section in the manual on why the number of articles
isn't the same in the group buffer and on the SPC prompt.
Interacting with rmail fcc isn't easy.

gnus-kill is much slower than it was in GNUS 4.1.3.

Bugs:

* when expunging articles on low score, the sparse nodes keep hanging on?
* starting the first time seems to hang Gnus on some systems.  Does
NEWGROUPS answer too fast?
* nndir doesn't read gzipped files.
* FAQ doesn't have an up node?
* when moving mail from a procmail spool to the crash-box,
the crash-box is only appropriate to one specific group.
* `t' `t' makes X-Faces disappear.
* nnmh-be-safe means that crossposted articles will
be marked as unread.
* Orphan score entries dont show on "V t" score trace
* when clearing out data, the cache data should also be reset.
* rewrite gnus-summary-limit-children to be non-recursive
to avoid exceeding lisp nesting on huge groups.
* expinged articles are counted when computing scores.
* implement gnus-batch-brew-soup
* ticked articles aren't easy to read in pick mode -- `n' and
stuff just skips past them.  Read articles are the same.
* topics that contain just groups with ticked
articles aren't displayed.
* nndoc should always allocate unique Message-IDs.
* implement gnus-score-thread
* If there are mail groups the first time you use Gnus, Gnus'll
make the mail groups killed. 
* no "no news is good news" when using topics.
* when doing crosspost marking, the cache has to be consulted
and articles have to be removed.
* nnweb should fetch complete articles when they are split into several
parts.
* scoring on head immediate doesn't work.
* finding short score file names takes forever.
* canceling articles in foreign groups.
* nntp-open-rlogin no longer works.
* C-u C-x C-s (Summary) switches to the group buffer.
* move nnmail-split-history out to the backends.
* nnweb doesn't work properly.
* using a virtual server name as `gnus-select-method' doesn't work?
* when killing/yanking a group from one topic to another in a slave, the 
master will yank it first to one topic and then add it to another.  
Perhaps.

New features:

* warn user about `=' redirection of a group in the active file?
* really unbinhex binhex files.
* take over the XEmacs menubar and offer a toggle between the XEmacs
bar and the Gnus bar.
* push active file and NOV file parsing down into C code.
`(canonize-message-id id)'
`(mail-parent-message-id references n)'
`(parse-news-nov-line &optional dependency-hashtb)'
`(parse-news-nov-region beg end &optional dependency-hashtb fullp)'
`(parse-news-active-region beg end hashtb)'
* nnml .overview directory with splits.
* asynchronous cache
* postponed commands.
* the selected article show have its Subject displayed in its summary line.
* when entering groups, get the real number of unread articles from
the server?  
* sort after gathering threads -- make false roots have the
headers of the oldest orhpan with a 0 article number?
* nndoc groups should inherit the score files of their parents?  Also
inherit copy prompts and save files.
* command to start up Gnus (if not running) and enter a mail mode buffer.
* allow editing the group description from the group buffer
for backends that support that.
* gnus-{hide,show}-all-topics
* groups and sub-topics should be allowed to mingle inside each topic,
and not just list all subtopics at the end.
* a command to remove all read articles that are not needed to connect
threads -- `gnus-summary-limit-to-sparse-unread'?
* a variable to turn off limiting/cutting of threads in the tree buffer.
* a variable to limit how many files are uudecoded.
* add zombie groups to a special "New Groups" topic.
* server mode command: close/open all connections
* put a file date in gnus-score-alist and check whether the file
has been changed before using it.
* on exit from a digest group, go to the next article in the parent group.
* hide (sub)threads with low score.
* when expiring, remove all marks from expired articles.
* gnus-summary-limit-to-body
* a regexp alist that says what level groups are to be subscribed
on.  Eg. -- `(("nnml:" . 1))'.
* easier interface to nnkiboze to create ephemeral groups that
contaion groups that match a regexp.
* allow newlines in <URL:> urls, but remove them before using
the URL.
* If there is no From line, the mail backends should fudge one from the
"From " line.
* fuzzy simplifying should strip all non-alpha-numerical info
from subject lines.
* gnus-soup-brew-soup-with-high-scores.
* nntp-ping-before-connect

* when messages are crossposted between several auto-expirable groups, 
articles aren't properly marked as expirable.
* nneething should allow deletion/moving.
* TAB on the last button should go to the first button.
* if the car of an element in `mail-split-methods' is a function,
and the function returns non-nil, use that as the name of the group(s) to 
save mail in.

* `gnus-fetch-old-headers' `all' value to incorporate
absolutely all headers there is.
* function like `|', but concatenate all marked articles
and pipe them to the process.

* score-find-trace should display the total score of the article. 
* "ghettozie" -- score on Xref header and nix it out after using it

`gnus-jog-cache' does -- for instance, work on just some groups, or on
some levels, and entering just articles that have a score higher than
a certain number.
* function to request all articles in a thread.
* nnfolder should append to the folder instead of re-writing
the entire folder to disk when accepting new messages.

starting Gnus first if necessary.
* when posting and checking whether a group exists or not, just 
ask the nntp server instead of relying on the active hashtb.
* buttonize the output of `C-c C-a' in an apropos-like way.
* `G p' should understand process/prefix, and allow editing
of several groups at once.

of a group that exists in multiple topics, only that copy should
be removed.  Yanking should insert the copy, and yanking topics
should be possible to be interspersed with the other yankings.

"ignore the nntp connection; just read from the cache."
* `X u' should decode base64 articles.
* a way to hide all "inner" cited text, leaving just the most
recently cited text.

clear up info.
* group user-defined meta-parameters.



From: John Griffith <griffith@sfs.nphil.uni-tuebingen.de>
* I like the option for trying to retrieve the FAQ for a group and I was
thinking it would be great if for those newsgroups that had archives
you could also try to read the archive for that group.  Part of the
problem is that archives are spread all over the net, unlike FAQs.
What would be best I suppose is to find the one closest to your site.

In any case, there is a list of general news group archives at
ftp://ftp.neosoft.com/pub/users/claird/news.lists/newsgroup_archives.html

* tanken var at når du bruker `gnus-startup-file' som prefix (FOO) til å lete
opp en fil FOO-SERVER, FOO-SERVER.el, FOO-SERVER.eld, kan du la den være en
liste hvor du bruker hvert element i listen som FOO, istedet.  da kunne man
hatt forskjellige serveres startup-filer forskjellige steder.


*LMI> Well, nnbabyl could alter the group info to heed labels like
LMI> answered and read, I guess.  

It could also keep them updated (the same for the Status: header of
unix mbox files).

They could be used like this:

`M l <name> RET' add label <name> to current message.
`M u <name> RET' remove label <name> from current message.
`/ l <expr> RET' limit summary buffer according to <expr>.

<expr> would be a boolean expression on the labels, e.g. 

        `/ l bug & !fixed RET'

would show all the messages which are labeled `bug' but not labeled
`fixed'. 

One could also immagine the labels being used for highliting, or
affect the summary line format.


*Sender: abraham@dina.kvl.dk

I'd like a gnus-find-file which work like find file, except that it
would recognize things that looks like messages or folders:

- If it is a directory containing numbered files, create an nndir
summary buffer.

- For other directories, create a nneething summaru buffer.

- For files matching "\\`From ", create a nndoc/mbox summary.

- For files matching "\\`BABYL OPTIONS:", create a nndoc/baby summary.

- For files matching "\\`[^ \t\n]+:", create an *Article* buffer.

- For other files, just find them normally.

I'd like `nneething' to use this function, so it would work on a
directory potentially containing mboxes or babyl files.

*Please send a mail to bwarsaw@cnri.reston.va.us (Barry A. Warsaw) and
tell him what you are doing.

*Currently, I get prompted:

decend into sci?
- type y
decend into sci.something ?
- type n
decend into ucd?

The problem above is that since there is really only one subsection of
science, shouldn't it prompt you for only decending sci.something?  If
there was a sci.somethingelse group or section, then it should prompt
for sci? first the sci.something? then sci.somethingelse?...

*Ja, det burde være en måte å si slikt.  Kanskje en ny variabel?
`gnus-use-few-score-files'?  Så kunne score-regler legges til den
"mest" lokale score-fila.  F. eks. ville no-gruppene betjenes av
"no.all.SCORE", osv.

*What i want is for Gnus to treat any sequence or combination of the following
as a single spoiler warning and hide it all, replacing it with a "Next Page"
button:
 

        ^L's

        more than n blank lines
        
        more than m identical lines 
        (which should be replaced with button to show them)

        any whitespace surrounding any of the above


*Well, we could allow a new value to `gnus-thread-ignore-subject' --
`spaces', or something.  (We could even default to that.)  And then
subjects that differ in white space only could be considered the
"same" subject for threading purposes. 

*Modes to preprocess the contents (e.g. jka-compr) use the second form
"(REGEXP FUNCTION NON-NIL)" while ordinary modes (e.g. tex) use the first
form "(REGEXP . FUNCTION)", so you could use it to distinguish between
those two types of modes. (auto-modes-alist, insert-file-contents-literally.)

* Under XEmacs -- do funny article marks:
tick - thumb tack
killed - skull
soup - bowl of soup
score below - dim light bulb
score over - bright light bulb

*Yes. I think the algorithm is as follows:

Group-mode
        show-list-of-articles-in-group
        if (key-pressed == SPACE) {
                if (no-more-articles-in-group-to-select) {
                        if (articles-selected)
                                start-reading-selected-articles;
                        junk-unread-articles;
                        next-group;
                } else {
                        show-next-page;
                }
        } else if (key-pressed = '.') {
                if (consolidated-menus)         # same as hide-thread in Gnus
                        select-thread-under-cursor;
                else
                        select-article-under-cursor;
        }

Article-mode
        if (key-pressed == SPACE) {
                if (more-pages-in-article)
                        next-page;
                else if (more-selected-articles-to-read)
                        next-article;
                else 
                        next-group;
        }

*My precise need here would have been to limit files to Incoming*.
One could think of some `nneething-only-files' variable, but I guess
it would have been unacceptable if one was using many unrelated such
nneething groups.

A more useful approach would be to, in response to the `G D' prompt, be
allowed to say something like: `~/.mail/Incoming*', somewhat limiting
the top-level directory only (in case directories would be matched by
the wildcard expression).

*It would be nice if it also handled 

        <URL:news://sunsite.auc.dk/>

which should correspond to `B nntp RET sunsite.auc.dk' in *Group*.


*
  Take a look at w3-menu.el in the Emacs-W3 distribution - this works out
really well.  Each menu is 'named' by a symbol that would be on a
gnus-*-menus (where * would be whatever, but at least group, summary, and
article versions) variable.

  So for gnus-summary-menus, I would set to '(sort mark dispose ...)

  A value of '1' would just put _all_ the menus in a single 'GNUS' menu in
the main menubar.  This approach works really well for Emacs-W3 and VM.


* nndoc should take care to create unique Message-IDs for all its
articles.
* gnus-score-followup-article only works when you have a summary buffer
active.  Make it work when posting from the group buffer as well.
(message-sent-hook).
* rewrite gnus-demon to use run-with-idle-timers.

* * Enhancements to Gnus:

  Add two commands:

  * gnus-servers (gnus-start-server-buffer?)--enters Gnus and goes
    straight to the server buffer, without opening any connections to
    servers first.

  * gnus-server-read-server-newsrc--produces a buffer very similar to
    the group buffer, but with only groups from that server listed;
    quitting this buffer returns to the server buffer.

* add a command to check the integrity of an nnfolder folder --
go through the article numbers and see that there are no duplicates,
and stuff.

* `unsmileyfy-buffer' to undo smileification.

* a command to give all relevant info on an article, including all
secondary marks.

* when doing `-request-accept-article', the backends should do
the nnmail duplicate checking.

* allow `message-signature-file' to be a function to return the
value of the signature file.

* In addition, I would love it if I could configure message-tab so that it
could call `bbdb-complete-name' in other headers.  So, some sort of
interface like

(setq message-tab-alist
      '((message-header-regexp message-expand-group)
        ("^\\(To\\|[cC]c\\|[bB]cc\\)"  bbdb-complete-name)))

then you could run the relevant function to complete the information in
the header

* cache the newsgroups file locally to avoid reloading it all the time.

* a command to import a buffer into a group.

* nnweb should allow fetching by Message-ID from servers.

* point in the article buffer doesn't always go to the
beginning of the buffer when selecting new articles.

* a command to process mark all unread articles.

* `gnus-gather-threads-by-references-and-subject' -- first
do gathering by references, and then go through the dummy roots and
do more gathering by subject.

* gnus-uu-mark-in-numerical-order -- process mark articles in
article numerical order.

* (gnus-thread-total-score
 (gnus-id-to-thread (mail-header-id (gnus-summary-article-header))))
bind to a key.

* sorting by score is wrong when using sparse threads.

* a command to fetch an arbitrary article -- without having to be
in the summary buffer.

* a new nncvs backend.  Each group would show an article, using
version branches as threading, checkin date as the date, etc.

This filter allows one to construct advance queries on the Dejanews
database such as specifying start and end dates, subject, author,
and/or newsgroup name.

* new Date header scoring type -- older, newer

* use the summary toolbar in the article buffer.

* a command to fetch all articles that are less than X days old.

* in pick mode, `q' should save the list of selected articles in the
group info.  The next time the group is selected, these articles
will automatically get the process mark.

* Isn't it possible to (also?) allow M-^ to automatically try the
default server if it fails on the current server?  (controlled by a
user variable, {nil, t, 'ask}).

* make it possible to cancel articles using the select method for the
current group.

* `gnus-summary-select-article-on-entry' or something.  It'll default
to t and will select whatever article decided by `gnus-auto-select-first'.

* a new variable to control which selection commands should be unselecting.
`first', `best', `next', `prev', `next-unread', `prev-unread' are
candidates.

* be able to select groups that have no articles in them
to be able to post in them (using the current select method).

* be able to post via DejaNews.

* `x' should retain any sortings that have been performed.

* allow the user to specify the presedence of the secondary marks.  Also
allow them to be displayed separately.

* gnus-summary-save-in-pipe should concatenate the results from
the processes when doing a process marked pipe.

* a new match type, like Followup, but which adds Thread matches on all
articles that match a certain From header.

* a function that can be read from kill-emacs-query-functions to offer
saving living summary buffers.

* a function for selecting a particular group which will contain
the articles listed in a list of article numbers/id's.

* a battery of character translation functions to translate common
Mac, MS (etc) characters into ISO 8859-1.

* all commands that react to the process mark should push
the current process mark set onto the stack.

* gnus-article-hide-pgp
Selv ville jeg nok ha valgt å slette den dersom teksten matcher
         "\\(This\s+\\)?[^ ]+ has been automatically signed by"
og det er maks hundre tegn mellom match-end og ----linja.  Men -det-
er min type heuristikk og langt fra alles.

* `gnus-subscribe-sorted' -- insert new groups where they would have been
sorted to if `gnus-group-sort-function' were run.

* gnus-{group,summary}-highlight should respect any `face' text props set
on the lines.

* `L M' command for lowering a moron in the all.SCORE file.
