3. Summary Buffer

A line for each article is displayed in the summary buffer. You can move around, read articles, post articles and reply to articles.

The most common way to a summary buffer is to select a group from the group buffer (see section Selecting a Group).

You can have as many summary buffers open as you wish.

You can customize the Summary Mode tool bar, see M-x customize-apropos RET gnus-summary-tool-bar. This feature is only available in Emacs.

The key v is reserved for users. You can bind it to some command or better use it as a prefix key. For example:

 
(define-key gnus-summary-mode-map (kbd "v -") "LrS") ;; lower subthread
