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