[Prefix: re-read from server] Dg Regenerate a Sieve script from group parameters. Du Regenerate Sieve script and upload to server. Notes Gnus is complex. Currently it has some 876 interactive (user-callable) functions. Of these 618 are in the two major modes (Group and Summary/Article). Many of these functions have more than one binding, some have 3 or even 4 bindings. The total number of keybindings is 677. So in order to save 40% space, every function is listed only once on this card, under the “more logical” binding. Alternative bindings are given in parentheses in the beginning of the description. Many Gnus commands are affected by the numeric prefix. Normally you enter a prefix by holding the Meta key and typing a number, but in most Gnus modes you don’t need to use Meta since the digits are not self-inserting. The prefixed behavior of commands is given in [brackets]. Often the prefix is used to specify: [distance] How many objects to move the point over. [scope] How many objects to operate on (including the current one). [p/p] The “Process/Prefix Convention”: If a prefix is given then it determines how many objects to operate on. Else if there are some objects marked with the process mark #, these are operated on. Else only the current object is affected. [level] A group subscribedness level. Only groups with a lower or equal level will be affected by the operation. If no prefix is given, ‘gnus-group-default-list-level’ is used. If ‘gnus-group-use-permanent-levels’, then a prefix to the ‘g’ and ‘l’ commands will also set the default level. [score] An article score. If no prefix is given, ‘gnus-summary-default-score’ is used. Group Subscribedness-Levels The table below assumes that you use the default Gnus levels. Fill your user-specific levels in the blank cells. Level 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 Gnus startup-commands: M-x gnus start Gnus. M-x gnus-no-server start Gnus without connecting to server (i.e. to read mail). Additionally, there are the two commands gnus-plugged and gnus-unplugged, which are only used if you want to download news and/or read previously downloaded news offline (see C-c C-i g Gnus Unplugged RET). Note: gnus-no-server ignores the stuff in gnus-agent-directory, and thus does not allow you to use Gnus Unplugged. C-c C-i Go to the Gnus online info. C-c C-b Send a Gnus bug report.

[p/p] Print this article using Muttprint. [p/p] Extract Series (Uudecode etc) Gnus recognizes if the current article is part of a series (multipart posting whose parts are identified by numbers in their subjects, e.g. 1/10. . . 10/10) and processes the series accordingly. You can mark and process more than one series at a time. If the posting contains any archives, they are expanded and gathered in a new group. X b Un-binhex these series. [p/p] X o Simply output these series (no decoding). [p/p] X p Unpack these postscript series. [p/p] X s Un-shar these series. [p/p] X u Uudecode these series. [p/p] Each one of these commands has four variants: Xz Decode these series. [p/p] XZ Decode and save these series. [p/p] X v z Decode and view these series. [p/p] X v Z Decode, save and view these series. [p/p] where z or Z identifies the decoding method (b, o, p, s, u). An alternative binding for the most-often used of these commands is C-c C-v C-v (X v u) Uudecode and view these series. [p/p] MIME operations from the Summary-Buffer For the commands operating on one MIME part (a subset of gnus-article-*), a prefix selects which part to operate on.

Kc Copy the MIME part. Ke View the MIME part externally. Ki View the MIME part internally. K| Pipe the MIME part to an external command. Kb Make all the MIME parts have buttons in front of them.
