gnus: Sticky Articles

 
 3.14 Sticky Articles
 ====================
 
 When you select an article the current article buffer will be reused
 according to the value of the variable ‘gnus-single-article-buffer’.  If
 its value is non-‘nil’ (the default) all articles reuse the same article
 buffer.  Else each group has its own article buffer.
 
    This implies that it’s not possible to have more than one article
 buffer in a group at a time.  But sometimes you might want to display
 all the latest emails from your mother, your father, your aunt, your
 uncle and your 17 cousins to coordinate the next Christmas party.
 
    That’s where sticky articles come in handy.  A sticky article buffer
 basically is a normal article buffer, but it won’t be reused when you
 select another article.  You can make an article sticky with:
 
 ‘A S’
      Make the current article sticky.  If a prefix arg is given, ask for
      a name for this sticky article buffer.
 
    To close a sticky article buffer you can use these commands:
 
 ‘q’
      Puts this sticky article buffer at the end of the list of all
      buffers.
 
 ‘k’
      Kills this sticky article buffer.
 
    To kill all sticky article buffers you can use:
 
  -- Function: gnus-kill-sticky-article-buffers ARG
      Kill all sticky article buffers.  If a prefix ARG is given, ask for
      confirmation.
