It is not only a modeline format, it also uses gnus buffers
configuration (look at the docstring of gnus-buffer-configuration)
For example I use the following to have the frame splitted horizontally
while reading a message with the message body at the bottom and the
group summary on the top :
(gnus-add-configuration
'(article
(vertical 1.0 (summary 13 point)
(article 1.0) )))
> 2. abbreviated date (i.e. "Mo 13")
With a custom date format :
;; affichage de la date en relatif
(setq gnus-user-date-format-alist
'(((gnus-seconds-today) . " %k:%M") ;dans la journée = 14:39
((+ 86400 (gnus-seconds-today)) . "hier %k:%M") ;hier = hier 14:39
((+ 604800 (gnus-seconds-today)) . "%a %k:%M") ;dans la semaine = sam 14:39
((gnus-seconds-month) . "%a %d") ;ce mois = sam 28
((gnus-seconds-year) . "%b %d") ;durant l'année = mai 28
(t . "%b %d '%y"))) ;le reste = mai 28 '05
The formats are those of format-time-string and should use your locals
to write the days and months names in your language.
> 3. very nice threading format
You need to set the use of the thread display in the mode line format,
for example :
(setq gnus-summary-line-format
(concat
"%*%5{%U%R%z%}"
"%4{|%}"
"%2{%-10&user-date;%}"
"%4{|%}"
"%2{ %}%(%-24,24f"
"%4{|%}"
"%2{%5i%}"
"%4{|%}"
"%2{%6k %}%)"
"%4{|%}"
"%2{ %}%3{%B%}%1{%s%}\n")) ;%B = threads display
The threads nice characters can be obtained by changing the default
display; It works nice under GNU/Linux and OSX (with atsui support), I
have not tested recently with Windows.
(setq gnus-sum-thread-tree-root "\x490b3 ") ; "> "
(setq gnus-sum-thread-tree-false-root "\x490b3 ") ; "> "
(setq gnus-sum-thread-tree-single-indent " ") ; ""
(setq gnus-sum-thread-tree-leaf-with-other "\x4903c\x49020\x490fb ") ; "+-> "
(setq gnus-sum-thread-tree-vertical "\x49022") ; "| "
(setq gnus-sum-thread-tree-single-leaf "\x49034\x49020\x490fb ") ; "\\-> "
Some variants :
(setq gnus-sum-thread-tree-root "\x4912f ") ; "> "
(setq gnus-sum-thread-tree-false-root "\x490f8 ") ; "> "
(setq gnus-sum-thread-tree-false-root "\x4912f ") ; "> "
(setq gnus-sum-thread-tree-single-indent "\x4912e ") ; ""
(setq gnus-sum-thread-tree-single-indent "\x490b3 ") ; ""
(setq gnus-sum-thread-tree-single-leaf "\x490b0\x49020\x490fa ") ; "\\-> "
> Any ideas?
Let's try what I wrote and look at the docstrings of the different
variables and function to know the format specifiers to be able to build
your own display.
HTH.
