Neither of these functions returns `\n'. And `\n' is not an alternative for a literal newline.
I am not sure what distinction you're making. `\n' is alternative Lisp syntax for a literal newline. Which one we use in writing a Lisp string is arbitrary, except when we're talking about print functions which use one or the other. _______________________________________________ Emacs-devel mailing list Emacs-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-devel
