Of course it's doable! For regexps I like the `rx' macro, which does
all the work for you while maintaining a much better structured view on
the regexp.
Here's an example:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(setq gnus-permanently-visible-groups
(rx (or ;; try all following matchers till one succeeds.
;; Match all groups starting with "de." or "comp."...
(and bol (or "de." "comp."))
;; plus these two groups.
"foo.bar.baz"
"foo.bla.bla")))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
In that example all groups that start with "de." or "comp." would be
permanently visible, plus the two groups "foo.bar.baz" and
"foo.bla.bla".
Hope that helps,
Tassilo
