* gnus-posting-styles - how to match message with more than N lines ? @ 2010-07-23 19:19 Sharad Pratap [not found] ` <87eieuq9dt.fsf@topper.koldfront.dk> 0 siblings, 1 reply; 2+ messages in thread From: Sharad Pratap @ 2010-07-23 19:19 UTC (permalink / raw) To: info-gnus-english I want to set message-cite-reply-above to t for those mail which has more than 20 lines, for this I am not able to find correct `gnus-posting-styles' rule. I have just put message-lines imaginary function, where I need some real condition to get the desired result. (setq gnus-posting-styles ((message-lines > 20) (eval (progn (set (make-local-variable 'message-cite-reply-above) t))))) Is here some way to do it successfully. -- -sharad ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 2+ messages in thread

This is for those mail (not for News article) that I do need to read, and reply similar type of text (I use posting-style's body attribute.) >> I have just put message-lines imaginary function, where I need some >> real condition to get the desired result. > >> (setq gnus-posting-styles >> ((message-lines > 20) >> (eval (progn >> (set (make-local-variable 'message-cite-reply-above) >> t))))) > > Don't you need to stick a lambda in there somewhere? (Or defun the > function elsewhere and use it in the posting styles?) Yes I have tried [1] (count-lines (point-min) (point-max)) Did not get result, I was not able to find how guns-posting-style used from sources, I have assumed guns-posting-style must be used in reply article's buffer. Footnotes: [1] (setq gnus-posting-styles ((count-lines (point-min) (point-max)) (eval (progn (set (make-local-variable 'message-cite-reply-above) t))))) -- Regards, -sharad ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 2+ messages in thread
