So I wrote some new stuff.
Let's see...
* A command for clearing out all article numbers from native groups
* Undo of some commands in the group buffer
* Score decay
* Scoring on the Date header using regexp matches, so you can now
say "....0401.23...." to score on all articles that were posted at
11PM on April 1st. Neat!
* I've added that multi-document thingie -- `####' and then `M-C-d' to
open an nnvirtual group that has lots of document groups as component
groups.
* Extended formatting variable syntax. You may now say, in addition
to "%6,6s" things like "%~(pad 6)~(cut-left 2)~(max 20)~(ignore 0)s"
to have a spec that's always at least 6 chars wide; that has had the
two leftmost characters chopped off; that is never longer than 20
characters; and that is blank if it is equal to "0". That last part
is the important one -- it allows uncluttered buffers. "%i" will, for
instance, in the summary buffer be the score. Most articles have a
score of 0, and don't need to be inserted, really. "%~(ignore 0)i"
will print out a blank field when the score is 0.
Yes, I really did try to make the syntax as ugly as possible, since
you asked.
Anybody have a better idea as to making the format a little prettier?
Oh, and I've also added a new spec -- "@". You can say
"%~(form (whatever-form))@" and the result from that form will be
inserted. It's just a simpler way of doing the same things as the
user-defined function specs, but, like.
