`S l' sets the level.  How do I find out what the current level is?

Thanks,

Shaun

`G E' will give you an editable buffer for all data related to the
group, the 2nd item of which (just after the name) is its level.

Admittedly, it's a poor way to do a simple query.

When you do S l the default it provides is the current level.  Or you
can do a M-: (gnus-group-group-level), or you can do a G e and see it
in there.  Or you can read your .newsrc.eld :-) I prefer the first
method, myself :-)

Re: Level

OK, thats sorted that out.... but it seems that all my groups are on
level 3.  I was gonna put my nnml groups on level 1 or 2.  This way I
can just check mail with `1 g' or `2 g'.  I think thats what the group
levels are for.  I read the docs but it said that levels weren't some
nifty feature but, an efficiency feature in that high levels like 9 do
not contain any group information like scores etc.  The ability to
just collect mail would be nice.  Am I on the right track, or barking
up the wrong tree?

Thanks,

Shaun

P.S. Wow, quick reply!

Yes, that is exactly what I and several others use group levels for.

I modified my group-line-format:

(setq gnus-group-line-format "%M%S%p%5y: %(%g%) %L\n")

Then the level is in the display all the time. :)

Aw, you're just a piker. :-)

(setq gnus-group-line-format "%M%S%p%P[^%L ?%I !%T] %5y: %(%G%)%l\n")

This shows me level, #dormant, #ticked articles for each, e.g.:
     [^2 ?0 !0]     1: list.ding
And I use %G because I don't need to see methods all over the place.
