Sorting threaded articles on top of summary

[Ivan Kanis <ivan@kanis.fr>]

Hello,

I look at newsgroup once in a long while. I find that threaded articles
are more interesting than lone post.

This is why I am trying to put threaded articles on top of my summary.

I set gnus-thread-sort-functions to '(gnus-thread-sort-by-score).

Now I am trying to tweak gnus-article-sort-by-score to compare threaded
article.

(defun gnus-article-sort-by-score (h1 h2)
  (let ((score1 (or (cdr (assq (mail-header-number h1)
                               gnus-newsgroup-scored))
                    gnus-summary-default-score 0))
        (score2 (or (cdr (assq (mail-header-number h2)
                               gnus-newsgroup-scored))
                    gnus-summary-default-score 0)))
    (if (= score1 score2) (is-thread h2)
      (> score1 score2))))

The problem I am facing is how do I tell that h2 is threaded?

I looked at the function that does a total score of a thread and found
it hard to understand.

Is the internal of gnus (such as header format) documented anywhere?

Am I even going the right way about this? Should I score threaded
article higher rather than messing with the sort function?

Any help much welcome,

Ivan
