new topic parameter: subscribe-level

[Josh Huber <huber@alum.wpi.edu>]

I've committed this.

2001-12-13  Josh Huber  <huber@alum.wpi.edu>

      * gnus-cus.el (gnus-extra-topic-parameters): added topic parameter
      subscribe-level
      * gnus-topic.el (gnus-subscribe-topics): use it.

Side note: Anyone else using XEmacs here?  To get it to save the
ChangeLog properly, I had to C-x C-m c iso-2022-7bit RET C-x C-s to
save the file in the proper coding.  The buffer-local variable didn't
seem to do the trick for me.

Does anyone have any scripts for handling Gnus development?  Such as,
something for automating commits & commit comments, posting to
gnus.ding, etc?
