Topic Sorting Group Topics Topic Parameters
So, let's have a look at an example group buffer:
Gnus Emacs -- I wuw it! 3: comp.emacs 2: alt.religion.emacs Naughty Emacs 452: alt.sex.emacs 0: comp.talk.emacs.recovery Misc 8: comp.binaries.fractals 13: comp.sources.unix
So, here we have one top-level topic (`Gnus
'), two topics under
that, and one sub-topic under one of the sub-topics. (There is always
just one (1) top-level topic). This topology can be expressed as
follows:
(("Gnus" visible) (("Emacs -- I wuw it!" visible) (("Naughty Emacs" visible))) (("Misc" visible)))
This is in fact how the variable gnus-topic-topology
would look
for the display above. That variable is saved in the `.newsrc.eld
'
file, and shouldn't be messed with manually---unless you really want
to. Since this variable is read from the `.newsrc.eld
' file,
setting it in any other startup files will have no effect.
This topology shows what topics are sub-topics of what topics (right),
and which topics are visible. Two settings are currently
allowed---visible
and invisible
.
