5.2.25 as supplied with xemacs 19.14.
There is a redundant usage of gnus-use-trees in
gnus-buffer-configuration, in the default `t' case. There's already a
gnus-use-trees entry under the cond; it's pointless under the `t'.
Much more generally...I am catching up -- 'waaaay up -- from
5.0.something to 5.2.25 now, and I'm finding gnus-buffer-configuration
completely incomprehensible. Of importance to me, I used to work with
a configuration like this, using a really wide (168-column) emacs:
---------------------
| Group | | This used to be accomplished with
|---------| | (gnus-add-configuration
| | Article | '(article ((group 0.25)
| Summary | | (summary 1.0 point))
| | | ((horizontal 0.5)
| | | (article 1.0))))
---------------------
I have a number of (horizontal 0.5) entries, and depend on it pretty
heavily (mail-forward and edit-group are very similar). The *Info*
documentation on gnus-buffer-configuration is really out of date, in
that it doesn't reference (e.g.) "vertical" as a g-b-c element at all,
even though it's all over the default g-b-c setting in gnus.el.
Could someone provide a clue? I feel like I'm missing something large
but obvious here. There are no horizontal examples from which to work
anywhere at this point.

I think you must be reading an old version of the manual. This is
from the new manual:
(gnus-add-configuration
'(article (vertical 1.0
(group 4)
(summary .25 point)
(article 1.0))))
Basically, to go from old to new, you just add "vertical 1.0"
everywhere. :-)

Oh, blast. Yes, my Info-directory-list did manage to hold one
directory with an ancient(!) manual. Apologies for short-sightedness.
I'm now using...
(gnus-add-configuration
'(article
(horizontal 1.0
(vertical 0.5
(group 0.25)
(summary 1.0 point))
(vertical 1.0
(article 1.0)))))
...which does precisely what the old version did.
