#### 3.7.6 Setting Process Marks

Process marks are displayed as `#` in the summary buffer, and are used for marking articles in such a way that other commands will process these articles. For instance, if you process mark four articles and then use the `*` command, Gnus will enter these four articles into the cache. For more information, see Process/Prefix.

`M P p`
`#`

  Mark the current article with the process mark (`gnus-summary-mark-as-processable`).

`M P u`
`M-#`

  Remove the process mark, if any, from the current article (`gnus-summary-unmark-as-processable`).

`M P U`

  Remove the process mark from all articles (`gnus-summary-unmark-all-processable`).

`M P i`

  Invert the list of process marked articles (`gnus-uu-invert-processable`).

`M P R`

  Mark articles that have a `Subject` header that matches a regular expression (`gnus-uu-mark-by-regexp`).

`M P G`

  Unmark articles that have a `Subject` header that matches a regular expression (`gnus-uu-unmark-by-regexp`).

`M P r`

  Mark articles in region (`gnus-uu-mark-region`).

`M P g`

  Unmark articles in region (`gnus-uu-unmark-region`).

`M P t`

  Mark all articles in the current (sub)thread (`gnus-uu-mark-thread`).

`M P T`

  Unmark all articles in the current (sub)thread (`gnus-uu-unmark-thread`).

`M P v`

  Mark all articles that have a score above the prefix argument (`gnus-uu-mark-over`).

`M P s`

  Mark all articles in the current series (`gnus-uu-mark-series`).

`M P S`

  Mark all series that have already had some articles marked (`gnus-uu-mark-sparse`).

`M P a`

  Mark all articles in series order (`gnus-uu-mark-all`).

`M P b`

  Mark all articles in the buffer in the order they appear (`gnus-uu-mark-buffer`).

`M P k`

  Push the current process mark set onto the stack and unmark all articles (`gnus-summary-kill-process-mark`).

`M P y`

  Pop the previous process mark set from the stack and restore it (`gnus-summary-yank-process-mark`).

`M P w`

  Push the current process mark set onto the stack (`gnus-summary-save-process-mark`).

Also see the `&` command in Searching for Articles, for how to set process marks based on article body contents.
