3.8: Limiting

It can be convenient to limit the summary buffer to just show some subset of the articles currently in the group. The effect most limit commands have is to remove a few (or many) articles from the summary buffer.

All limiting commands work on subsets of the articles already fetched from the servers. None of these commands query the server for additional articles.

/ /
/ s

Limit the summary buffer to articles that match some subject (gnus-summary-limit-to-subject).

/ a

Limit the summary buffer to articles that match some author (gnus-summary-limit-to-author).

/ u
x

Limit the summary buffer to articles not marked as read (gnus-summary-limit-to-unread). If given a prefix, limit the buffer to articles strictly unread. This means that ticked and dormant articles will also be excluded.

/ m

Ask for a mark and then limit to all articles that have been marked with that mark (gnus-summary-limit-to-marks).

/ t

Ask for a number and then limit the summary buffer to articles older than (or equal to) that number of days (gnus-summary-limit-to-marks). If given a prefix, limit to articles younger than that number of days.

/ n

Limit the summary buffer to the current article (gnus-summary-limit-to-articles). Uses the process/prefix convention (see Process/Prefix).

/ w

Pop the previous limit off the stack and restore it (gnus-summary-pop-limit). If given a prefix, pop all limits off the stack.

/ v

Limit the summary buffer to articles that have a score at or above some score (gnus-summary-limit-to-score).

/ E
M S

Include all expunged articles in the limit (gnus-summary-limit-include-expunged).

/ D

Include all dormant articles in the limit (gnus-summary-limit-include-dormant).

/ *

Include all cached articles in the limit (gnus-summary-limit-include-cached).

/ d

Exclude all dormant articles from the limit (gnus-summary-limit-exclude-dormant).

/ T

Include all the articles in the current thread in the limit.

/ c

Exclude all dormant articles that have no children from the limit (gnus-summary-limit-exclude-childless-dormant).

/ C

Mark all excluded unread articles as read (gnus-summary-limit-mark-excluded-as-read). If given a prefix, also mark excluded ticked and dormant articles as read.
