##### 6.8.2.2 Diary Articles Sorting

`gnus-diary` provides new sorting functions (see Sorting the Summary Buffer ) called `gnus-summary-sort-by-schedule`, `gnus-thread-sort-by-schedule` and `gnus-article-sort-by-schedule`. These functions let you organize your diary summary buffers from the closest event to the farthest one.

`gnus-diary` automatically installs `gnus-summary-sort-by-schedule` as a menu item in the summary buffer's “sort” menu, and the two others as the primary (hence default) sorting functions in the group parameters (see Diary Group Parameters).
