gnus-group-read-group
). If there are no
unread articles in the group, or if you give a non-numerical prefix to
this command, Gnus will offer to fetch all the old articles in this
group from the server. If you give a numerical prefix n, n
determines the number of articles Gnus will fetch. If n is
positive, Gnus fetches the n newest articles, if n is
negative, Gnus fetches the abs(n)
oldest articles.
Thus, SPC enters the group normally, C-u SPC offers old articles, C-u 4 2 SPC fetches the 42 newest articles, and C-u - 4 2 SPC fetches the 42 oldest ones.
When you are in the group (in the Summary buffer), you can type M-g to fetch new articles, or C-u M-g to also show the old ones.
gnus-group-select-group
). Takes the same arguments as
gnus-group-read-group
---the only difference is that this command
does not display the first unread article automatically upon group
entry.
gnus-group-quick-select-group
). No
scoring/killing will be performed, there will be no highlights and no
expunging. This might be useful if you're in a real hurry and have to
enter some humongous group. If you give a 0 prefix to this command
(i.e., 0 M-RET), Gnus won't even generate the summary buffer,
which is useful if you want to toggle threading before generating the
summary buffer (see section 3.26.3 Summary Generation Commands).
gnus-group-visible-select-group
).
gnus-group-select-group-ephemerally
). Even threading has been
turned off. Everything you do in the group after selecting it in this
manner will have no permanent effects.
The gnus-large-newsgroup
variable says what Gnus should
consider to be a big group. If it is nil
, no groups are
considered big. The default value is 200. If the group has more
(unread and/or ticked) articles than this, Gnus will query the user
before entering the group. The user can then specify how many
articles should be fetched from the server. If the user specifies a
negative number (-n), the n oldest articles will be
fetched. If it is positive, the n articles that have arrived
most recently will be fetched.
gnus-large-ephemeral-newsgroup
is the same as
gnus-large-newsgroup
, but is only used for ephemeral
newsgroups.
If gnus-auto-select-first
is non-nil
, select an article
automatically when entering a group with the SPACE command.
Which article this is is controlled by the
gnus-auto-select-subject
variable. Valid values for this
variable is:
unread
first
unseen
unseen-or-unread
best
This variable can also be a function. In that case, that function will be called to place point on a subject line.
If you want to prevent automatic selection in some group (say, in a
binary group with Huge articles) you can set the
gnus-auto-select-first
variable to nil
in
gnus-select-group-hook
, which is called when a group is
selected.
