Does it really work for you? Grepping the lisp/gnus directory for
gnus-article-treat-non-ascii finds only these:
./gnus-sum.el:2218: "U" gnus-article-treat-non-ascii
./gnus-sum.el:2543: ["Non-ASCII" gnus-article-treat-non-ascii t]
There is a defun article-treat-non-ascii and `C-h f
article-treat-non-ascii' contains a link to that, but `C-h f
gnus-article-treat-non-ascii' does not. I guess that's because of this:
(eval-and-compile
(mapc
(lambda (func)
(let (afunc gfunc)
(if (consp func)
(setq afunc (car func)
gfunc (cdr func))
(setq afunc func
gfunc (intern (format "gnus-%s" func))))
(defalias gfunc
(when (fboundp afunc)
`(lambda (&optional interactive &rest args)
,(documentation afunc t)
(interactive (list t))
(with-current-buffer gnus-article-buffer
(if interactive
(call-interactively ',afunc)
(apply #',afunc args))))))))
'(article-hide-headers
[...]
article-treat-non-ascii
article-normalize-headers)))
Or has there been a recent change that makes the link in the *Help*
buffer displayed by `C-h f gnus-article-treat-non-ascii' actually go to
the defun of article-treat-non-ascii?
