I'm not against it, but I've a little knowledge of completion-styles, I just moved existing code in gnus-completing-read, so suggestions are welcome! =2D-=20 Julien Danjou // =E1=90=B0 http://julien.danjou.info --=-=-= Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (GNU/Linux) iEYEARECAAYFAkyiUdsACgkQpGK1HsL+5c1tngCgoj7xgKYqkGvlZLesL7sM867Z i/gAn0E/zzEUF1CRR22/iQ6RPc+KOiJT =X+Xh -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-=-=--
