They could me marked with, uhm, "@" (which would be "unread" in the manner of "!"). Article selection commands would skip past these articles, just as they do with "!". Yup, I think I'll do that. > Having them clumped, and visually separate, would be very useful when > your walking through them, and decide which to down load.

Well, if we have this situation: [ 21: Paul Stodghill ] Bug with gnus-group-jump-to-group and topics @ [ 1035: Hrvoje Niksic ] [ 21: Paul Stodghill ] (Hrvoje's article wasn't downloaded because it was too long.) Why would you want to break threading and put that article in the top (or somewhere) of the summary buffer? Having these @ articles in the thread doesn't impede normal reading, and would give us more information whether to download the article or not than when displayed outside the thread. -- (domestic pets only, the antidote for overdose, milk.) larsi@gnus.org * Lars Magne Ingebrigtsen
