In the summary, the symbols are displayed as rectangles (squares) when the line is bold or italics or some other face different from the face in the other buffer. Correct? This means that your default font for mule-unicode-* in Emacs is missing the bold and/or italic glyphs. (Same problem Ted mentioned in .) Then you'll have two possibilities: 1) Install a font has has the glyphs, e.g. the efont-unicode package on SuSE. On MGO the packages for Debian and Gentoo are mentioned, IIRC. See the thread around [1] (in the German Gnus newsgroup) for all the details. 2) Using %1{%B%} and `gnus-summary-line-format' to specify a non-bold display of the tree indicators in the summary, see the function `rs-gnus-summary-line-initialize' in my `rs-gnus-summary.el'. (copy-face 'default 'rs-gnus-face-1) (setq gnus-face-1 'rs-gnus-face-1) ;; Set line format: (setq gnus-summary-line-format "... %1{%B%} ...\n") I'm not sure if this is the recommended way to do this. I don't really understand Emacs' font business. Bye, Reiner. [1] -- ,,, (o o) ---ooO-(_)-Ooo--- PGP key available via WWW http://rsteib.home.pages.de/
