Hello,
I'm wondering, for some time, why the Group buffer is like if it was a
"Modified" buffer (see `**' in the modeline). Shouldn't it be read-only
instead (`%') like Dired?
Best regards,
Seb

Are you talking about the Group buffer in Gnus, or a different Group buffer?

The ** indicates that there are changes that haven't been saved to your
~/.newsrc.eld yet. Hit `s' in *Group*, and the ** will go away.
If you quit gnus uncleanly (e.g. simply kill *Group*) when there's the
** mark, you'll be queried if gnus should read the auto-saved dribble
file at the next startup.
Bye,
Tassilo

That does make a lot of sense. Thanks for enlightening me!
