Elisp help needed

Elisp help needed

[Ted Stern]

Hi, I need some elisp help in modifying a gnus variable.

We have an internal digest that uses a row of equals signs rather than dashes
to delineate separate messages.

To deal with this, I want to modify one specific part of nndoc-type-alist,
specifically, the article-begin section of slack-digest.  I can handle the
regular expressions but not the elisp.  I know there is some combo of getcar,
setcdr, etc. but I don't have a manual handy.

An alternative would be to add a different digest format, but my attempts at
that don't seem to work.

Thanks,

car, setcdr, setcar, cdr.  And stuff.  push is also nice.
