hi I just have installed gnews and the gnews.info manual. It seems great to use such a tool to read news from a (very) remote site. Nevertheless the manual is not beginner-friendly. I know well gnuemacs and a few of elisp. I have no time to dive in the internals of gnews. I am the only user of gnuemacs and gnews in my site. Given these informations, can someone give me a simple way to mark a range of articles in a newsgroup as unread. Is there a way different than editing .gnewsrc (or .gnwsrc.new)?

Try something like `3155-3158,3162,3166,3190-3198m' while in the newsgroup. If you're trying to do something more specific, describe it, as there's likely going to be an easier way to do it. -- -Matthew P Wiener (weemba@beaver.ics.uci.edu, weemba@math.berkeley.edu)

I would like to be able to select a region, and mark all of the items in the region as read. Any ideas? -- Bruce G. Barnett <barnett@crdgw1.ge.com> uunet!crdgw1!barnett
