Well, that format is not at all standard.

It is:

(gnus-button-fetch-group  "news.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.gnus.user/1853")
(gnus-button-fetch-group  "nntp://news.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.gnus.user/1853";)

A group name plus an article number only makes sense if also the
server is specified.  Then, you can use `gnus-button-fetch-group' or
`browse-url':

(browse-url "nntp://news.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.gnus.user/8816";)

,----[ <f1> v browse-url-browser-function RET ]
| browse-url-browser-function is a variable defined in `browse-url'.

| (("^mailto:"; . browse-url-mail)
|  ("^\\(news\\|nntp\\)://" . gnus-button-fetch-group)
|  ("." . rs-browse-url-by-killing))

Bye, Reiner.
