If you tinker and experiment with Agent categories, the editing interface supplied at (group buffer) 'J c', can begin to seem tedious. 1) Can there be a choice that shows each category in its entirety and can be edited. Something in a format like this: Category: NAME Predicate: true Score: SCOREFILE displayed Groups: Groups belonging to this category listed It would be nice to be able to edit all three items at once.. This could be done at ~/News/agent/lib/categories but the 'categories' file can look pretty intimidating to edit if you have complicated scoring or predicates. 2) Along this line of thought, it would be very nice if in group buffer there was a command something along the line of 'G p' but not an editing interface. Maybe 'A p' for agent parameters. That would display the Category, Score file, and list of groups belonging to that category. So you could put the cursor on a group, hit 'A p' and see that info displayed. -- Harry Putnam reader@newsguy.com
