First way, via the GUI: Once you can see 'em (g), click on any message you wish to change the score on, and use the "edit articles' watch/ignore/score" function (menu item under article, and AFAIK there's a default hotkey for it as well, maybe "s", alto I've so customized my hotkeys I'm not sure on that). That brings up a dialog with all the scores that apply. You can add and remove scores there, and there's even a "close and rescore" button, to apply the action dynamically. (Do be aware that this triggers a full relisting in the header pane, so if you have view only unread turned on as well as auto-mark-read, the message you clicked will now be marked- read and thus disappear with the re-display. I just hit the close and rescore button... without changing a score but just hit the button after opening the dialog... on your message as I typed this, and your message originally being the only unread message in the group... disappeared as it was now read!) Second way, edit the scorefile itself: Pan's scorefile is named Score. It's found in pan's normal data dir, thus being ~/.pan2/Score by default. You can of course edit it using your favorite text editor, either with pan closed, or to see the results immediately with pan already open, use the same edit score, close and rescore method as mentioned above, to get pan to pick up the updated scorefile. Or just quickly click to a different group and back, as pan applies scores on group (re)entry as well. Of course, the same "all read messages now disappear" caveat applies, if you have view only unread messages turned on. I went into some detail on the scorefile format, along with examples, in my big long (459 line, pan says) reply in the Pan GUI config file edits thread, a couple days ago. As I said there, if you use scoring (which includes watches and ignores) a lot, it's well worth text-editing the scorefile directly, combining all the entries pan adds one at a time, making it much more efficient for both pan and humans to read. =:^) This goes doubly so if like me you use ignores for spam control and accumulate hundreds or thousands of unexpiring entries over time, that can be combined into a single massive ignore score applying to all groups using a newsgroups/section entry such as [*] or [*.*] or (the one in the posted example, covering the full alt.* hierarchy but nothing else) [alt.*]. -- Duncan - List replies preferred.
