Gnus enhancements for epoch?

I have just started using gnus-3.14 and was wondering if anyone has
made some gnus enhancements such that article subjects, current
article and group, etc show up in a different style. (color, font,
whatever).  I think this would make life a lot easier in terms of
picking out stuff for quick reading...

So, before I make some horrible attempt at doing this myself, has
anyone already done it?

Thanks,

Colin

My tek-highlight package does this.  It's in beta test at the moment
[i.e. no documentation :-)].  I can send a copy to you if you like.
Note that I'm on the end of a dial-up line, so if lots of people want
it, I will need to ask someone to put it up for ftp somewhere (i.e. I
can't mail it to more than a very few people).

You can even set it up to interact with BBDB so that articles posted
by people in your BBDB database are highlighted.  Very useful for
weeding out the interesting articles from the junk.

I have arranged for ftp access to a beta version of tek-highlight and
tek-mouse.  If you wish to be a beta tester, then please mail me.
