Keep handy notes of read Gnus articles with helm and org

Commentary

Keep handy notes of your read Gnus articles with helm and org.

This file provides the core setup and data needs of gnus-notes.

Keep notes on the gnus articles that are important to me. The
rest can simply be removed from gnus-notes, without affecting Gnus.
If an article is removed from gnus-notes, by accident or I want it
back for whatever reason, no problem. All I have to do is view the
article in gnus, and it is back on gnus-notes.

Gnus notes works in the background silently, keeping track of the
articles read with gnus. When an article is read, it adds a quick
note of it to notes. Simply, that's all. It removes notes of
deleted articles or the ones expunged by gnus.

Gnus-notes is similar to the Gnus registry, but whereas the
registry tries to catch everything, gnus-notes is light-weight.
It doesn't try to keep everything. Only the articles "I have"
read. Its job is much simpler. "My read" articles are the only
really important "to me" articles, isn't is so ?

This simplicity allows the user to add and remove articles to
gnus-notes, stress free.

Viewing gnus-notes with the powerful helm interface brings great
search capabilities and all the other helm goodness.
Gnus-notes has been built around helm.

Additional integration provided, or planned, with:
- org-mode, built-in
- BBDB built-in with gnus (gnus-insinuate 'bbdb 'message)
- EBDB (todo)

Gnus is not limited to email, that is why gnus uses the term "articles".
Gnus-notes follows the Gnus general philosophy, it also uses the term
"articles". Most testing has been done on email (and IMAP in particular) and RSS.

This package is a fork of gnus-recent with additional inspiration by gnorb.
