Article display functions

Article display functions

[Lars Magne Ingebrigtsen]

Perhaps the lots-and-lots-of-variables thing for article display is
the right thing.  What should the variables be called? 

gnus-article-do-hide-cited-text
gnus-article-do-highlight-cited-text

and so on?  Eh.

And while we're doing this, perhaps the don't-work-on-biiig-article
thing should be done as well?  Could this be worked into the same
scheme?  Like, if gnus-article-do-highlight-cited-text is nil, that's
not done; if it is t, it's always done; and if it's a number, it's
only done if the article body is less chars than that number?

Or should the simply be a
gnus-article-dont-do-stuff-if-article-is-longer-than variable that
inhibits all the article treatment functions?  Or what?

I vote for the single don't-do-it-if-article-is-larger-than-this variable.

I second this. Doing it the other way might get things a bit too
messy, doesn't it? Just to think about the house keeping :-)

Sorry Kai, I've hit 'R' instead of 'F', first :-/
