Re: adding date to the summary buffer

[gfp]

Hi all,

thanks very much for helping me.
I tried every hint from all of you and checked what it looks like.

My advice was in

particular to have a look at the description for the variable which
defines the format of the summary line,

M-x describe-variable RET gnus-summary-line-format RET

I read also that.

What does the number -16,16 say?
│%}%I%(%-16,16f%)

the default was: -23,23
[%4L: %-23,23f%]

I found this:
gnus-summary-line-format:
%I   Indentation based on thread level (a string of spaces)
Still I don`t know what the number exactly mean.


Kind regards

gfp

Hi,

thanks very much.
It worked.

Excellent.

I am reading the manual every day, I read also that already twice,
but my problem is that I am still on a low level,
so I can´t put it into practice yet.

Understood.  We all have to start somewhere.  My advice was in
particular to have a look at the description for the variable which
defines the format of the summary line,

M-x describe-variable RET gnus-summary-line-format RET

as it describes each and every % directive in such a format.

Starting with what I gave you may be the wrong starting point as it has
many possibly superfluous bits of information...
