# $ K Group Window
Group windows contain a list of subjects of articles in a given newsgroup.  Double-clicking on the subject of an article causes that article to be retrieved into an article window.  See Using the Mouse in the Group Window.
Group windows initially appear in the upper right area of the screen.  It is possible to have up to 4 group windows open at any one time.  See Config Menu Commands.
The first character of each subject line in a group window gives information about that article:
space	indicates either that WinVN has no information on the status of this article, or that this article was available in a previous WinVN session and you chose not to view it.
>	indicates that this article has been selected as the result of the previous Find operation.
s	indicates that you have already seen this article.
n	indicates that this article has appeared since your last WinVN session.
The other fields in the window are:
	Article Number:	A number used to help a user locate a particular article.  Never refer to this number when responding to an article since the number will most likely differ from server to server.
	Article Date:	The date the article was posted to the server.
	Author's Name:	The network E-Mail address or name of person posting the article.
	Article Size:	The number of lines in the article.
	Article Title:	The title of the article.
