26 ;;; Commentary:
27
28 ;; This package allows arbitrary undoing in Gnus buffers. As all the
29 ;; Gnus buffers aren't very text-oriented (what is in the buffers is
30 ;; just some arbitrary representation of the actual data), normal Emacs
31 ;; undoing doesn't work at all for Gnus.
32 ;;
33 ;; This package works by letting Gnus register functions for reversing
34 ;; actions, and then calling these functions when the user pushes the
35 ;; `undo' key. As with normal `undo', there it is possible to set
36 ;; undo boundaries and so on.
37 ;;
38 ;; Internally, the undo sequence is represented by the
39 ;; `gnus-undo-actions' list, where each element is a list of functions
40 ;; to be called, in sequence, to undo some action. (An "action" is a
41 ;; collection of functions.)
42 ;;
43 ;; For instance, a function for killing a group will call
44 ;; `gnus-undo-register' with a function that un-kills the group. This
45 ;; package will put that function into an action.
