I'm somewhat confused by the G command. Often I want to go back
to read articles in the same group I am in. If I G<ret>,
sometimes I get an equal sign (for a subject regexp) and other
times I get the minimenu of: all, unread, subject.

What controls which I get, and how can I force the menu to be
displayed? Sometimes not even specifying the group by name will
do it, and I must exit nn and reenter via nn-g. 

What am I overlooking? Honest I did RTFM, it's on pages 11,12&13......
