Hi,
I want to use gnus-score-functions everywhere (eg in the *Group*
Buffer). Thus it not necessarily exists a summary-buffer. But in
`gnus-score.el' I often find code with (set-buffer gnus-summary-buffer)
in front of a score function.
| (set-buffer gnus-summary-buffer)
| (gnus-score-load-file ...
| (set-buffer gnus-summary-buffer)
| (gnus-summary-score-entry
Why is this important, is it important? What should I do if there is no
summary-buffer?
TIA, Micha

Many of the scoring functions do their work in other buffers, but
need to access variables that are buffer-local to the summary buffer.

Then it probably won't work.
