Subject: jump and select
Date: Sat, 28 Feb 1998 16:19:20 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <x7sop3ig13.fsf@chow.mat.jhu.edu> (raw)

The following patch adds an optional argument to
gnus-group-jump-to-group which asks it to select the group it is
jumping to.  So if the user types `C-u j', he or she will be
prompted for a group-name which will then be selected.

1) Is this a good way to get this functionality?

2) If so, can this patch be applied?

Dan
