Hmm a `(mail-header-subject gnus-current-headers)' seems to do the
right thing.
ie.
(defun gnus-summary-save-article-pilot (&optional arg)
"Save the current article to a memo on your Palm device.
If N is a positive number, save the N next articles.
If N is a negative number, save the N previous articles.
If N is nil and any articles have been marked with the process mark,
save those articles instead."
(interactive "P")
(let ((gnus-default-article-saver 'gnus-summary-save-in-pilot-memo))
(gnus-summary-save-article arg)))
(defun gnus-summary-save-in-pilot-memo (&optional filename)
"Save this article to a memo on your Palm device.
Optional argument FILENAME specifies file name."
(gnus-eval-in-buffer-window gnus-save-article-buffer
(save-buffer-to-pilot (read-string "memo title: " (mail-header-subject gnus-current-headers)))))
Is that, like, a good way to do it ?
Thanks heeps,
Cos.
