Using align-to in the summary buffer wouldn't help much directly, because Gnus also has to limit the width of the strings. That can be done with vertical-motion and stuff, but would make generating the buffer slow. If Emacs had a version of align-to that really aligned to the specified pixel position, even if the text displayed there is wider than that position, then that would be nice. (That is, it would have to truncate the text if it's too wide.) -- (domestic pets only, the antidote for overdose, milk.) bloggy blog http://lars.ingebrigtsen.no/
