Subject: group-line-format and Gmail - stop displaying [Gmail]
Date: Mon, 24 Sep 2012 07:55:07 -0700 (PDT)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <afd38cbb-cc7c-4c54-b66c-114aacffe078@googlegroups.com> (raw)

Hi all
I use Gnus for email only.

To make small-screen usage easier, I'd like to get my Gnus group line to omit the square-bracketed word [Gmail]/ from the display.

I currently have

(setq gnus-group-line-format "%M%S%p%P%5y: %(%G%)%l %6,6~(cut 2)d\n")

but I can't find any clues about how to convert the group name (the %G above) into something that will eliminate the relevant (I mean irrelevant) :) part.

Even getting my group-line to not display "a set of square brackets and anything inside them" would be good enough, I expect - I don't have any other mailboxes with those as part of the name.

-- 
Thanks
David
