Hi.

I'd like to set the banner for a group in the groups parameters this
way:

(setq gnus-parameters
    '(("foo\\.bar"
        (banner . (concat
                  "^--\n"
                  "To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to  debian[^ ]+@lists.debian.org\n"
                  "with a subject.*Trouble.*listmaster@lists.debian.org")))))

Reason: it's easier to read and I don't like very long lines.
Problem: gnus doesn't seem to "evaluate" the value of 'banner', ie. the
(concat) doesn't get executed. Thus, (gnus-parameter-banner) for this
group returns 'nil'.
        
Any solutions? It might be trivial, but lisp is all greek to me.

Thanks,
Andras

(setq gnus-parameters
    `(("foo\\.bar"
        (banner . ,(concat
                   "^--\n"
                   "To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to  debian[^ ]+@lists.debian.org\n"
                   "with a subject.*Trouble.*listmaster@lists.debian.org")))))
Note "`" and ",".
