C-h v gnus-score-find-score-files-function:
[...]
This variable can also be a list of functions to be called. Each
function is given the group name as argument and should either return
a list of score files, or a list of score alists.
[...]
"Score alist" means the form found in .SCORE files, right?
Like:
(((and ("from" "foo" s) ("subject" "bar" s)) -100))
And a list of those would be:
((((and ("from" "foo" s) ("subject" "bar" s)) -100)))
OK, let's try it:
(setq gnus-score-find-score-files-function
`(,(lambda (group)
`((((and
("from" "foo" s)
("subject" "bar" s))
-100))))
gnus-score-find-bnews))
Select a group => Wrong type argument: listp, -100.
Gnus wants another level of parens around the score alist:
(setq gnus-score-find-score-files-function
`(,(lambda (group)
`(((((and
("from" "foo" s)
("subject" "bar" s))
-100)))))
gnus-score-find-bnews))
works, but this isn't what the documentation says. Or am I dreaming?

It isn't. Maybe Per or Lars know the story behind it.

Yes...

I think this is a bug in `gnus-score-load-files'. Shall I fix the
bug, or document this into a feature?
