IIUC, Richard decided to allow more than one default value, since this is a quite trivial change. > In that case, "defaults" is misleading (that is, incorrect). > I suggest "default-value", which is clearer, anyway. > > Similarly, I think "initial-value" or "init-value" is clearer than > "initial". I think neither "initial-value" nor "default-value" make the semantics of arguments clearer than "initial" or "default". To understand the difference between them, programmers still should consult the documentation. > "Init" clearly stands for "initial", but the "value" part is > important - "initial" by itself doesn't mean much (initial what?). Perhaps simply "init" would be good: it's short, and since it is not a real word, it doesn't require a noun like "-value". -- Juri Linkov http://www.jurta.org/emacs/ _______________________________________________ Emacs-devel mailing list Emacs-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-devel
