I meant that these functions return only a literal newline, not `\n'. It might be confusing for readers of the reference manual when they will try out an example and see that its real output is different from the documented output in regard to newlines. They might start to search for an (AFAIK, nonexistent) option that toggles a literal newline or `\n' in return values, or even to fill a bug report. -- Juri Linkov http://www.jurta.org/emacs/ _______________________________________________ Emacs-devel mailing list Emacs-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-devel
