Subject: Buffer mode lines
Date: 11 Dec 1995 15:00:21 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <w8s91kj1z0q.fsf@surt.ifi.uio.no> (raw)
It has been brought to my attention that the Gnus buffer lines don't
actually have the buffer names displayed anywhere. (I actually just
hadn't thought about it before -- doesn't everybody know that the
buffer that lists the groups is called "*Group*"? No? Oh, well.
It's branded into my brain. :-)
So the next release will have mode lines that look like
"-- Gnus: *Group* {nntp:ifi}" (or whatever). That goes for all mode
lines. I've also changed the default of `gnus-mode-non-string-length'
to nil, which means that Gnus will not chop off too long mode line
strings, and will not "pad" the mode lines.
I think the old mode lines were blatant un-Emacsisms. They were
prettier, though.
