You mean `c' for `gnus-group-catchup-current' or
`gnus-topic-catchup-articles' and answering `n' to the y-or-n-p
prompt?

What I see in the echo area is:

- c --> Mark all unread articles in ulm.test as read? (y or n) 

- n --> Mark all unread articles in ulm.test as read? (y or n) n

  ... i.e. the response "n" stays there until you hit some other key
  (e.g. `p', `n', ...).

I fail to see anything wrong here.

Bye, Reiner.
