Often you will read an article and want to go back and read all the
articles that have been posted with its subject.  Here's a macro that
does this.  To run it type ^a (CTL+a) while reading an article with
the subject you're interested in.


--- begin init.macros.all-subject ---
# Archived at ftp://ftp.halcyon.com/pub/ii/internet/nn/init.macros.all-subject

# Select all (even read) articles with this subject; display base article
# Assumes you have case-fold-search set, and want to do a case-sensitive
# search.
# BUG: Also finds articles with current subject as substring of subject.
#      (Anyone know how to do an exact match?)
map show ^a (
        :unset case-fold-search    # Make case sensitive
        goto-group "s" find "^" 'Z'
        :set case-fold-search      # Make case insensitive (default)
)
--- end init.macros.all-subject ---

To install this macro, put init.macros.all-subject in your ~/.nn directory
and put this line in your init file:

 load init.macros.all-subject
