Thank you. message-fetch-field works if the point is in a message
buffer. I was not aware of this option. But when the point is in a
gnus-summary buffer, then
(message-fetch-field "Subject")
returns nil. Even with something like:
(defun husain--test-message-subject-yank ()
(interactive)
(save-excursion
(let ((subj (message-fetch-field "Subject")))
(if subj
(message subj)
(gnus-summary-show-article)
(gnus-summary-select-article-buffer)
(message (message-fetch-field "Subject"))))))
this still doesn't work as intended because it does not restore the
window if the point is in a gnus-summary buffer pointing to an article
not open.
Is there a gnus function that can build the message in a temp buffer?
