[MIT-Scheme-devel] Patch: Change default behavior of `news-select-article'

[Rich Loveland]

Hi all,

I've attached a patch that changes the default behavior of the news
reader's `news-select-article' command. Right now, when you select an
article in the newsgroup buffer, your current buffer is switched to
the article's buffer, and you lose your view of the group.

This patch changes the default behavior to instead split your Edwin
frame and open the article in the other window, to more closely match
the way the IMAIL summary buffer works.

However, we leave a prefix argument in there so folks can still use
the old behavior if they want. Alternatively, this could be redone to
make the old behavior the default, and you'd need the prefix arg to
get the new behavior.

What do y'all think?
