    Well? When I browse killed groups I'd like to be able to sort-lines
   on the buffer. Why isn't there a  gnus-Group-sort-groups function?



I have the following in my .emacs.  Calling gnus-sort-groups sorts the
*Newsgroup* and killed groups alphabetically.  To see the sorted list,
press 'g' (gnus-Group-get-new-news) in the *Newsgroup* buffer.  The killed
groups will display sorted the next time they are displayed.

(defun gnus-sort-groups ()
  "Sort newsgroups alphabetically"
  (interactive)
  (setq gnus-newsrc-assoc
	(sort gnus-newsrc-assoc '(lambda (a b) (string< (car a) (car b)))))
  (setq gnus-killed-assoc
	(sort gnus-killed-assoc '(lambda (a b) (string< (car a) (car b)))))
)
