28 ;;; Commentary:
30 ;; This file implements links to Gnus groups and messages from within Org-mode.
31 ;; Org-mode loads this module by default - if this is not what you want,
32 ;; configure the variable `org-modules'.

36 (require 'org)
37 (eval-when-compile
38 (require 'gnus-sum))
40 ;; Customization variables
