Subject: displaying initial words in a summary line (like gmail)
Date: Fri, 25 Mar 2005 19:02:17 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <r77psxnhady.fsf@muscadet.inria.fr> (raw)

The following message is a courtesy copy of an article
that has been posted to gnu.emacs.gnus as well.

Hello,

I was reading the doc for gnus-summary-line-format, but couldn't find
an answer to my question.

When visually scanning the summary buffer I would find it useful to
see the first couple of words of each message.  Those who use Google
gmail might have noticed that this makes it far faster to identify to
the missed spams in the inbox and the missed hams in the spambox.

Any ideas?

While I'm asking, is there any way to get proportional fonts for the
summary buffer (but maintain the tabular alignment) so I can easily
see more data?

Regards,
-James
