(defun gnus-kill-file-mode ()
  "Major mode for editing kill files.

If you are using this mode - you probably shouldn't.  Kill files
perform badly and paint with a pretty broad brush.  Score files, on
the other hand, are vastly faster (40x speedup) and give you more
control over what to do.

In addition to Emacs-Lisp Mode, the following commands are available:

\\{gnus-kill-file-mode-map}

  A kill file contains Lisp expressions to be applied to a selected
newsgroup.  The purpose is to mark articles as read on the basis of
some set of regexps.  A global kill file is applied to every newsgroup,
and a local kill file is applied to a specified newsgroup.  Since a
global kill file is applied to every newsgroup, for better performance
use a local one.

  A kill file can contain any kind of Emacs Lisp expressions expected
to be evaluated in the Summary buffer.  Writing Lisp programs for this
purpose is not so easy because the internal working of Gnus must be
well-known.  For this reason, Gnus provides a general function which
does this easily for non-Lisp programmers.

  The `gnus-kill' function executes commands available in Summary Mode
by their key sequences.  `gnus-kill' should be called with FIELD,
REGEXP and optional COMMAND and ALL.  FIELD is a string representing
the header field or an empty string.  If FIELD is an empty string, the
entire article body is searched for.  REGEXP is a string which is
compared with FIELD value.  COMMAND is a string representing a valid
key sequence in Summary mode or Lisp expression.  COMMAND defaults to
'(gnus-summary-mark-as-read nil \"X\").  Make sure that COMMAND is
executed in the Summary buffer.  If the second optional argument ALL
is non-nil, the COMMAND is applied to articles which are already
marked as read or unread.  Articles which are marked are skipped over
by default.

  For example, if you want to mark articles of which subjects contain
the string `AI' as read, a possible kill file may look like:

	(gnus-kill \"Subject\" \"AI\")

  If you want to mark articles with `D' instead of `X', you can use
the following expression:

	(gnus-kill \"Subject\" \"AI\" \"d\")

In this example it is assumed that the command
`gnus-summary-mark-as-read-forward' is assigned to `d' in Summary Mode.

  It is possible to delete unnecessary headers which are marked with
`X' in a kill file as follows:

	(gnus-expunge \"X\")

  If the Summary buffer is empty after applying kill files, Gnus will
exit the selected newsgroup normally.  If headers which are marked
with `D' are deleted in a kill file, it is impossible to read articles
which are marked as read in the previous Gnus sessions.  Marks other
than `D' should be used for articles which should really be deleted.

Entry to this mode calls emacs-lisp-mode-hook and
gnus-kill-file-mode-hook with no arguments, if that value is non-nil."
