  24 ;;; Commentary:
  25
  26 ;; This package allows arbitrary undoing in Gnus buffers.  As all the
  27 ;; Gnus buffers aren't very text-oriented (what is in the buffers is
  28 ;; just some arbitrary representation of the actual data), normal Emacs
  29 ;; undoing doesn't work at all for Gnus.
  30 ;;
  31 ;; This package works by letting Gnus register functions for reversing
  32 ;; actions, and then calling these functions when the user pushes the
  33 ;; `undo' key.  As with normal `undo', there it is possible to set
  34 ;; undo boundaries and so on.
  35 ;;
  36 ;; Internally, the undo sequence is represented by the
  37 ;; `gnus-undo-actions' list, where each element is a list of functions
  38 ;; to be called, in sequence, to undo some action.  (An "action" is a
  39 ;; collection of functions.)
  40 ;;
  41 ;; For instance, a function for killing a group will call
  42 ;; `gnus-undo-register' with a function that un-kills the group.  This
  43 ;; package will put that function into an action.
