71 "Major mode for editing kill files.
73 If you are using this mode - you probably shouldn't. Kill files
74 perform badly and paint with a pretty broad brush. Score files, on
75 the other hand, are vastly faster (40x speedup) and give you more
76 control over what to do.
78 In addition to Emacs-Lisp Mode, the following commands are available:
80 \\{gnus-kill-file-mode-map}
82 A kill file contains Lisp expressions to be applied to a selected
83 newsgroup. The purpose is to mark articles as read on the basis of
84 some set of regexps. A global kill file is applied to every newsgroup,
85 and a local kill file is applied to a specified newsgroup. Since a
86 global kill file is applied to every newsgroup, for better performance
87 use a local one.
89 A kill file can contain any kind of Emacs Lisp expressions expected
90 to be evaluated in the Summary buffer. Writing Lisp programs for this
91 purpose is not so easy because the internal working of Gnus must be
92 well-known. For this reason, Gnus provides a general function which
93 does this easily for non-Lisp programmers.
95 The `gnus-kill' function executes commands available in Summary Mode
96 by their key sequences. `gnus-kill' should be called with FIELD,
97 REGEXP and optional COMMAND and ALL. FIELD is a string representing
98 the header field or an empty string. If FIELD is an empty string, the
99 entire article body is searched for. REGEXP is a string which is
100 compared with FIELD value. COMMAND is a string representing a valid
101 key sequence in Summary mode or Lisp expression. COMMAND defaults to
102 '(gnus-summary-mark-as-read nil \"X\"). Make sure that COMMAND is
103 executed in the Summary buffer. If the second optional argument ALL
104 is non-nil, the COMMAND is applied to articles which are already
105 marked as read or unread. Articles which are marked are skipped over
106 by default.
108 For example, if you want to mark articles of which subjects contain
109 the string `AI' as read, a possible kill file may look like:
111 (gnus-kill \"Subject\" \"AI\")
113 If you want to mark articles with `D' instead of `X', you can use
114 the following expression:
116 (gnus-kill \"Subject\" \"AI\" \"d\")
118 In this example it is assumed that the command
119 `gnus-summary-mark-as-read-forward' is assigned to `d' in Summary Mode.
121 It is possible to delete unnecessary headers which are marked with
122 `X' in a kill file as follows:
124 (gnus-expunge \"X\")
126 If the Summary buffer is empty after applying kill files, Gnus will
127 exit the selected newsgroup normally. If headers which are marked
128 with `D' are deleted in a kill file, it is impossible to read articles
129 which are marked as read in the previous Gnus sessions. Marks other
130 than `D' should be used for articles which should really be deleted.
132 Entry to this mode calls emacs-lisp-mode-hook and
133 gnus-kill-file-mode-hook with no arguments, if that value is non-nil."
