Endless impression~ Gnus' citation style..

Actually i like Gnus very much. Gnus is my eternity in computing. All the time i play Gnus when i am with Chromebook at home. 

But now i am subway. So i do question with android smartphone. 

I like basic citation style. However i did discover some citation style at Gmane web (attached file). That gave me endless impression. Yah! I want it! How can i set it my dot.gnus.el?

Thanks for adVance!

Sincerely,

That is the normal citation style which is
supplied by default.

In an article buffer, use
`gnus-article-followup-with-original' (or the
`F' key) to get a head start.

Otherwise mark the text you'd like to "citify"
and then press `M-;' (for `comment-dwim').

That is not the normal style. The default is to have 
message-citation-line-function as message-insert-citation-line, 
which produces:  "Name" <email> writes:  Byung-Hee is even saying 
that he likes that style but wants the other, the one that they 
attached. If I understand correctly, they want something like:  In 
article "article from origin", "Name" <email> writes:  And besides 
that, to have the email addresses masked with <at> instead of @. 
For that message-citation-line-function needs to be set to 
your-own-citation-style-function. I do not know what the 
information referring to the article actually is, but this could 
get you started:  #+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
  (defun your-own-citation-style-function ()
    (let* ((from (mail-header-from message-reply-headers))
            (data (gnus-extract-address-components from))
            (name (car data))
            (email (cadr data))
            (masked-email (replace-regexp-in-string "@" " <at> " 
            email)))
      (insert (concat "In article XXX, "
                       name
                       " <"
                       masked-email
                       "> writes:"))
      (newline)))

Customize message-citation-line-function and
message-citation-line-format.

OK, that! I wouldn't call that a "style"
because it appears only once! But why not - in
that case, this is the function that does it -

    (defun message-insert-citation-line ()
      "Insert a simple citation line."
      (when message-reply-headers
        (insert (mail-header-from message-reply-headers) " writes:")
        (newline)
        (newline)))

- which is in:

    /usr/share/emacs/24.4/lisp/gnus/message.el

The OP will have to write a function that
constructs the desired outcome, and then
replace it, much like Indiana Jones with the
pouch of sand and the golden idol!

I already have a couple of functions to do that:

    ;; This file: http://user.it.uu.se/~embe8573/conf/emacs-init/match-data-format.el

    (defun make-match-list (num string)
      (let ((match (match-string num string)))
        (when match (cons match (make-match-list (1+ num) string) ))))

    (defun match-data-format (data match format-str)
      (save-match-data
        (string-match match data)
        (apply (function message) format-str
      (make-match-list 1 data)) ))

    ;; This file: http://user.it.uu.se/~embe8573/conf/emacs-init/gnus/article.el

    (defun gnus-article-header-value (header)
      "Get the value of HEADER for the current article."
      (with-current-buffer gnus-original-article-buffer
        (gnus-fetch-field header) ))

So using those function, it can be done like
this - only problem is, do really all "From"
headers look the same?

    (defun goofy-citation-line ()
      (let*((message-id (gnus-article-header-value "Message-ID"))
            (from       (gnus-article-header-value "From"))
            (from-mail  (match-data-format from "\\(.*\\) ("   "<%s>"))
            (from-name  (match-data-format from ".*(\\(.*\\))" "%s"))
            (all        (format "In %s, %s %s writes:\n\n" message-id from-name from-mail))
            (all-no-at  (replace-regexp-in-string "@" " <at> " all)) )
        (insert all-no-at) ))

That is what the OP called it.

:-) That's exactly what I said:

> I already have a couple of functions to do that

So does message.el, the variable message-reply-headers contains a 
vector with the headers:

[number subject from date id references chars lines xref extra]
 
> So using those function, it can be done like this - only problem 
> is, do really all "From" headers look the same?

If "From" headers are in RFC-822 there are already functions to 
deal with that, one of them is gnus-extract-address-components 
that I mentioned in the previous message. Another one is 
mail-extract-address-components.

>     (defun goofy-citation-line ()
>       (let*((message-id (gnus-article-header-value 
>       "Message-ID"))

Better to use (mail-header-id message-reply-headers)

>             (from (gnus-article-header-value "From"))
>             (from-mail (match-data-format from "\\(.*\\) ("

>             (from-name (match-data-format from ".*(\\(.*\\))"

Better to use cadr and car of (gnus-extract-address-components 
(mail-header-from message-reply-headers)).

Better to use (newline) at the end instead of inserting \n, to 
respect use of hard-newlines. This is important in message mode if 
one wants format=flowed.

OK, so now most definitely the OP has enough
material to present a qualified attempt at
solving his problem! Until then I'll lay low :)

Good luck!

OK, I take that back! Seeing how easy it would
be to complete JAAMs function, I couldn't
resist doing it (actually I didn't try to
resist it).

I already tried it on my previous message - see
the first three lines of this message - is that
what you (the OP) had in mind?

Note that I did (at) instead of <at> because
there are already angle brackets on the outside
so it looks strange to have them on the inside
as well <i.e. <nested>, like that> - anyway
this can be changed easily enough...

By the way, what is the reason for knowing the
message ID? Can you do anything interesting
with that information? If so, what?

Here is the function:

(defun citation-style-function ()
  (let*((id           (mail-header-id   message-reply-headers))
        (from         (mail-header-from message-reply-headers))
        (from-data    (gnus-extract-address-components from))
        (name         (car  from-data))
        (email        (cadr from-data))
        (citation-string (format "In article %s, %s <%s> writes:"
                                 id name email) )
        (masked-string (replace-regexp-in-string "@" " (at) "
                                                 citation-string) ))
    (insert masked-string)
    (newline)
    (newline) ))

What do you think of this one? (I mean the
first line, not the citation which happens to
contain one as well.) Looks kinda' good, ey? :)

By the way, is the OP's "citation style" what
is called the "attribution line" in the
Gnus source? E.g., line 117, in:

    /usr/share/emacs/24.4/lisp/gnus/gnus-cite.el.gz

Only remaining obstacle changing it is the
regexp setting the face must change as well!
On the other hand, keeping the attribution line
simple and the regexp detecting it is simple
as well!

And the function producing it? I'd say,
pretty simple!

(defun citation-style-function ()
  (let*((from            (mail-header-from message-reply-headers))
        (from-data       (gnus-extract-address-components from))
        (name            (car  from-data))
        (email           (cadr from-data))
        (citation-string (format "%s [%s] writes:" name email))
        (masked-string   (replace-regexp-in-string "@" "(a)"
                                                   citation-string) ))
    (insert masked-string)
    (newline)
    (newline) ))

Sure.  Message-IDs are pseudo-unique, so you should be able to jump to a
message by its ID.  Gnus’ built-in function to do that is called
‘gnus-summary-refer-article’.

By the way, that’s why is so important to preserve IDs intact all its
way.  And that is exactly what ‘news.gnu.org’ mail-to-news gateway, that
you are familiar to, fails to do; so when one posts a reply to an
article on, for example, ‘gnu.emacs.help’ newsgroup, subscribers of
‘help-gnu-emacs@gnu.org’ mailing list receive broken threads (but not
the vice versa).

Of course, it does not work with IDs that were obfuscated by
substitution of ‘@’ with anything else.

Not to insult anyone, but I would of call this a good example of magical
thinking.  As we all know, a tradition to remove ‘@’ from email
addresses, published on the Web, dates back to the times when spammers
were strong and spam filters were weak.

However: a) email message is not a web page, all addresses are
nonetheless provided in its headers in the best possible way; b)
Message-ID is not an address, it’s completely useless for any mail
harvesting bot.

OK, I always did that by using the summary
directly, but why not?

I have heard many people talk about that
gateway, but I have never seen the actual
software or heard of any efforts to debug it.

Instead of being hysterical about people using
gnu.emacs.help, which is a good thing, the
efforts should be focused at solving the
problem, which (again, according to what I've
heard), isn't with gnu.emacs.help but with
the gateway.

Hey, you can always write a function that
obfuscates them back to their original form :)

There are archives which include the entire
body but not the headers! So if you put the
mail in the body and the archive doesn't
'obfuscates" it, it'll show!

> b) Message-ID is not an address, it’s

Yeah, actually will it not work the other way
around? By keeping the "@", spam-spiders will
think it a mail and waste time/resources
sending a mail to it?

It is better to supply the relevant source code
(yank it into the message), or, if it is a lot
of code and/or dependent on several other
files, to supply the URL(s).

Also, I'd recommend to use English only in
your source.

You'll learn that there are people who have
spent years configuring even smaller details
into much weirder things. It is nothing I'd
recommend tho unless you enjoy it :)
