Subject: (gnus-group-list-all-matching) bug?
Date: Sat, 05 Jan 2008 10:22:49 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87k5moxmw6.fsf@newsguy.com> (raw)
I've been using topic mode in gnus for a few mnths, after yrs of using
gnus in the normal or near default display mode.
One item that really works badly in topic mode is:
(gnus-group-list-all-matching) `A M'
When I run that command trying to discover some forgotten group I
suddenly want to look at, what happens in completely the opposite of
what you expect.
That is, not a single group is displayed.. instead the topics all
close up and all I see is a neat assembly of the topics.
My current search was:
(gnus-group-list-all-matching nil "web")
I know I have at least one group answering that description and I
thought maybe one or two more. But instead I get the behaviour
described above.
More crazy stuff happens too. When I start opening the topics I find
all kinds of long ago killed, zombieized[?sp], or unsubscribed
groups. All the flotsom that isn't supposed to be displayed and NONE of
it matches `web'.
Can that be due to local settings or does it constitute a genuine bug?
It might take a little doing to repeat the problem. You'd have to
setup topics and all unless some of you using `topics' can verify
this behavior.
All I have to do to see it is run the `A M' command from group buffer.
