(shell-command-default-error-buffer): Renamed from shell-command-on-region-default-error-buffer. (shell-command-on-region): Mention in echo area when there is some error output. Mention success or failure, too. Accumulate multiple error outputs going forward, with formfeed in between. Display the error buffer when we have put something in it. (shell-command): Add the ERROR-BUFFER argument feature.

Each news header has an associated list of score entries.  
You can use the [INS] buttons to add new score entries anywhere in the
list, or the [DEL] buttons to delete specific score entries.

Each score entry should specify a string that should be matched with
the content actual header in order to determine whether the entry
applies to that header.  Enter that string in the `Match' field.

If the score entry matches, the articles score will be adjusted with
some amount.  Enter that amount in the in the `Score' field.  You
should specify a positive amount for score entries that matches
articles you find interesting, and a negative amount for score entries
matching articles you would rather avoid.  The final score for the
article will be the sum of the score of all score entries that match
the article. 

The score entry can be either permanent or expirable.  To make the
entry permanent, push the `Date' button and choose the `Permanent'
entry.  To make the entry expirable, choose instead the `Integer'
entry.  After choosing the you can enter the date the score entry was
last matched in the `Date' field.  The date will be automatically
updated each time the score entry matches an article.  When the date
become too old, the the score entry will be removed.

For your convenience, the date is specified as the number of days
elapsed since the (imaginary) Gregorian date Sunday, December 31, 1
BC.

Finally, you can choose what kind of match you want to perform by
pushing the `Type' button.  For most entries you can choose between
`Exact' which mean the header content must be exactly identical to the
match string, or `Substring' meaning the match string should be
somewhere in the header content, or even `Regexp' to use Emacs regular
expression matching.  The last choice is `Fuzzy' which is like `Exact'
except that whitespace derivations, a beginning `Re:' or a terminating
parenthetical remark are all ignored.  Each of the four types have a
variant which will ignore case in the comparison.  That variant is
indicated with a `(fold)' after its name."))

WARNING:  Scoring on the following three pseudo headers is very slow!
Scoring on any of the real headers use a technique that avoids
scanning the entire article, only the actual headers you score on are
scanned, and this scanning has been heavily optimized.  Using just a
single entry for one the three pseudo-headers `Head', `Body', and
`All' will require GNUS to retrieve and scan the entire article, which
can be very slow on large groups.  However, if you add one entry for
any of these headers, you can just as well add several.  Each
subsequent entry cost relatively little extra time."))

Each time you read an article it will be marked as read.  Likewise, if
you delete it it will be marked as deleted, and if you tick it it will
be marked as ticked.  When you leave a group, GNUS can automatically
create score file entries based on these marks, so next time you enter
the group articles with subjects that you read last time have higher
score and articles with subjects that deleted will have lower score.  

Below is a list of such marks.  You can insert new marks to the list
by pushing on one of the `[INS]' buttons in the left margin to create
a new entry and then pushing the `Mark' button to select the mark.
For each mark there is another list, this time of article headers,
which determine how the mark should affect that header.  The `[INS]'
buttons of this list are indented to indicate that the belong to the
mark above.  Push the `Header' button to choose a header, and then
enter a score value in the `Score' field.   

For each article that are marked with `Mark' when you leave the
group, a temporary score entry for the articles `Header' with the
value of `Score' will be added the adapt file.  If the score entry
already exists, `Score' will be added to its value.  If you understood
that, you are smart.

You can select the special value `Other' when pressing the `Mark' or
`Header' buttons.  This is because Lars might add more useful values
there.  If he does, it is up to you to figure out what they are named.")
