Hello;
Is it possible to sort threads so that those with the most recent
articles appear first and have articles/sub-threads within the threads
sorted chronologically?
Right now the top-level threads are sorting properly, but within threads
it looks like this:
Tue Jun 18 at 14:56 ● Joe Schmo
Wed Jun 19 at 18:07 ├――► -> Kim Ho
Thu Jun 20 at 13:20 │ └――► Jane Doe
Thu Jun 20 at 21:17 │ └――► Mary Flo
Tue Jun 18 at 16:04 └――► -> Donny Brasco
When I go to the first article in the thread and evaluate
(gnus-summary-rethread-current), it changes to
Tue Jun 18 at 14:56 ● Joe Schmo
Tue Jun 18 at 16:04 ├――► Donny Brasco
Wed Jun 19 at 18:07 └――► -> Kim Ho
Thu Jun 20 at 13:20 └――► Jane Doe
Thu Jun 20 at 21:17 └――► Mary Flo.
The second sorting makes more sense to me. Can it be done by default?
I think these are the relevant parts of my configuration:
(custom-set-variables
'(gnus-thread-sort-functions (quote
(gnus-thread-sort-by-most-recent-number))))
(setq gnus-sort-gathered-threads-function (quote
gnus-thread-sort-by-date))
I'm guessing I'm missing something with
gnus-sort-gathered-threads-function because it doesn't seem to matter
what I set it to.
I'm running Gnus from the git repository and GNU Emacs 24.3.1.
Thanks for any suggestions,
Joseph
