Now in .emacs in custom-set-variabel paragraph I have this: .... '(gnus-article-sort-functions (quote ((not gnus-article-sort-by-date)))) '(gnus-check-new-newsgroups nil) '(gnus-default-directory "c:\\emacs\\gnus") '(gnus-directory "c:\\gnus/News/") '(gnus-dribble-directory "c:\\emacs\\gnus") '(gnus-home-directory "c:\\emacs") '(gnus-read-active-file nil) '(gnus-save-all-headers nil) '(gnus-select-method (quote (nntp "news.newsguy.com"))) '(gnus-thread-sort-functions (quote ((not gnus-thread-sort-by-date)))) .... I assume I can eventually move all these to my .gnus by stripping tic to left of open paren and inserting setq to right, correct? After screwing things up I now have on the last line of *Group* buffer U 0:*gnu.emacs.gnus in unbolded font. How do I normalize that group so that it is bolded font and with the number of all messages? Thanks, Ed
