Hello,
I have the following problem:
I want my group buffer to looks like:
[ Gnus -- 0 ]
[ misc -- 0 ]
* 0: other | ++++| (nnml:)
*: drafts | ++| (nndraft:)
[ Emacs -- 0 ]
[ Mail/News/AddressBook/Calendar/W3 -- 0 ]
* 0: gnu.emacs.gnus | ..............| (nntp:cachou)
* 0: gnus.dev | +++| (nnml:)
* 0: bbdb.dev | +++| (nnml:)
[ Windoze -- 0 ]
* 0: nt.emacs | ++++| (nnml:)
[ OOP -- 0 ]
* 0: oo.gang-of-4-patterns | +++| (nnml:)
(Don't worry about the . and the +: it is a timestamp histogramm).
I have the following group line definition:
(setq gnus-group-line-format "%M%S%p%P%5y: %(%~(pad-right 25)G%)|%24uz| %l%z\n")
But this don't take into account the 'folding' of the topic. So I end up with:
[ Gnus -- 0 ]
[ misc -- 0 ]
* 0: other | ++++| (nnml:)
*: drafts | ++| (nndraft:)
[ Emacs -- 0 ]
[ Mail/News/AddressBook/Calendar/W3 -- 0 ]
* 0: gnu.emacs.gnus | ..............| (nntp:cachou)
* 0: gnus.dev | +++| (nnml:)
* 0: bbdb.dev | +++| (nnml:)
[ Windoze -- 0 ]
* 0: nt.emacs | ++++| (nnml:)
[ OOP -- 0 ]
* 0: oo.gang-of-4-patterns | +++| (nnml:)
^^^
That's the problem.
which I find ugly.
Is there a way, probably in the definition of %(%~(pad-right 25)G%), to take
in account the folding indent?
Best regards,

Ok,
I'm now trying to write a specific function to do this kind of unindent. In order to do
that I need to know the current indent on a group line.
I've tried to play with gnus-topic-group-indentation, gnus-group-group-indentation, but
I didn't succeed.
Any idea(s)?

I faced the problem of Topic indentation too, and the only thing I
found to take it into account was to use `(current-column)' in my user-defined
function. Here it is. It's very stupid, but enough for my own use. What would
be nice is to have something like a `flush' post-processing command, to flush
everything after it on the right of the window.
;; This is to flush the output to the right (a constant column).
(defun gnus-user-format-function-g (dummy)
(let ((length (- (current-fill-column) 15 (current-column))))
(if (<= length 0)
" "
(make-string length ? ))
))

It did the trick, thanks!

I've thought about adding a "tab" spec that would say "go to column
x", but I've not written that. It's non-trivial because of the
(optimized) way text props are added to the lines.
