I'm experimenting Gnus in offline mode. In the summary of a group, I
selected a region and expected that gnus-agent-toogle-mark or
gnus-agent-mark-article would mark the all articles in the region, but
they did not. So I have to mark one by one.
How can I speed all that marking?

You can use the prefix argument to mark the next _n_ articles. Actually
those functions should be using `gnus-summary-work-articles', which
takes marks and the region into account.

If you for some reason don't want to use the
prefix argument method, I have some Elisp to do
just what you want:
(defun gnus-summary-mark (char start stop)
(interactive
(let ((c (read-char "mark: ")))
(if (use-region-p)
(list c (region-beginning) (region-end))
(let*((strt (point))
(stp (1+ strt)) )
(list c strt stp) ))))
(goto-char start)
(beginning-of-line)
(while (< (point) stop)
(gnus-summary-mark-article (gnus-summary-article-number) char)
(gnus-summary-find-next) ))
