Subject: nnir, gnus-goto-article and such
Date: Thu, 15 Sep 2011 14:24:26 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <m2r53hslyd.fsf@pluto.luannocracy.com> (raw)
I have this nifty function that lets me look up an article by
message-id, no matter which of my groups it's in:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(defun gnus-goto-article (message-id)
(with-current-buffer
(get-buffer-create (concat "*goto-article " message-id "*"))
(erase-buffer)
;; insert dummy article
(insert (format "From nobody Tue Sep 13 22:05:34 2011\n\n"))
(gnus-group-read-ephemeral-group
message-id
`(nndoc ,message-id
(nndoc-address ,(current-buffer))
(nndoc-article-type mbox))
'activate
(not 'quit-config)
(not 'request-only)
'(-1) ; 'select-articles
(not 'parameters)
0 ; ' number
)
(gnus-summary-refer-article message-id)))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
Now there are just two problems with this:
1. (very minor): if I do `/ o' in the resulting buffer, I see the dummy
article, which is needed if I want to activate the group. How can I
remove it from the group after activation?
2. (important) I'd like to see the whole thread (e.g. with `A T'). That
works fine if it's an IMAP article because nnir finds it. However,
nnir doesn't work on nntp newsgroups.
It seems to me what's missing is some way of recording the source of
the message retrieved by gnus-summary-refer-article, and some way of
asking for a thread search in an nntp server. Ideas?
TIA,
