I use somthing like this for a prettier newsrc.eld:
(add-hook 'gnus-save-quick-newsrc-hook
(lambda ()
(save-excursion
(goto-char (point-min))
(save-match-data
(while (re-search-forward "(\\\"\\| ((\\| (nn" nil t)
(replace-match "\n \\&" t)))
(delete-trailing-whitespace))))
It may not be perfect, but it does make it a great deal more readable.
