Your email address and a clever or insightful quote or saying should be placed in this file before posting news or sending mail. Hi Folks, I didn't fill in any of the above since this is simply a complaint about the documentation string for the gnus-summary-move-article function and its relatives. The first sentence of that docstring states: Move the current article to a different newsgroup. That sentence is false, depending on the parameters passed. Why couldn't it read Move a group of articles to a different newsgroup. ? Then each of the subsequent cases define what the "group" is based on the parameters. This way the statement is true for all cases of input parameters. I read the first sentence and concluded that function wasn't what I needed. I then spent 10 minutes in #emacs figuring out it DOES do what I need (move marked articles). randy.yates@ti.com yates@digitalsignallabs.com
