I had a quick look. You currently have to refer to a set of predefined
variables in entries in `gnus-summary-highlight':
score: The article's score.
default: The default article score.
default-high: The default score for high scored articles.
default-low: The default score for low scored articles.
mark: The article's mark.
uncached: Non-nil if the article is uncached.
though, actually, any expression is allowed I think. It would be easier
if one could refer to the article number via `article'. So currently, I
would have to do something like this:
(add-to-list 'gnus-summary-highlight
'((memq (or (gnus-summary-article-number) gnus-current-article)
gnus-newsgroup-processable)
. hl-line))
I would suggest to at least do the following:
(1) Provide an `article' variable. Maybe also provide `processable' as
suggested and/or `sec-mark' (somewhere in the code the process mark is
called a "secondary mark")?
(2) make the docstring of `gnus-summary-highlight' say that arbitrary
expressions are allowed, and that they are evaluated with point
positioned on the according article's line.
For (1), AFAIU two places would need to be changed:
`gnus-summary-highlight-line' and `gnus-tree-highlight-node'. Seems to
be simple to do.
Thanks,
Michael.
