In Common Lisp, #' is a reader macro that is an abbreviation for function. So #'foo is read as (function foo). I'm not at all sure what #' means in elisp, which is not the same programming language. A quick peek at the Elisp info file didn't find reader macros anywhere in there. AFAIK for defining hooks a symbol will be interpreted as a function name, won't it? So replacing all of the #'s with 's above would work, wouldn't it? Best, r ___ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Remember: use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.

Re: [Orgmode] Re: Docs submitted
The CL spec is online: http://www.lispworks.com/documentation/HyperSpec/Front/ In emacs lisp: function is a special form in `C source code'. (function arg) Like `quote', but preferred for objects which are functions. In byte compilation, `function' causes its argument to be compiled. `quote' cannot do that.

Hi Tom, it looks like efficiency is *not* one of your problems. Thanks a lot for getting this done so quickly. I have just released Org-mode 6.22 which included org-choose.el. As for the documentation, I have made some minor layout changes (turned the level-1 heading into a title, and promoted the level-2 headings). I also modified the Loading it section to reflect the fact that org-module now has a checkbox for this package. The resulting file is up on Worg at http://orgmode.org/worg/org-contrib/org-choose.php If you ever want to change anything in that document, just do it yourself, in Worg. Thanks for your contribution! - Carsten On Feb 10, 2009, at 4:14 AM, Tom Breton (Tehom) wrote: Hi, Carsten. Well, some ASCII documentation could be inserted into org-choose.el as a file commentary. If you use a standard header with keywords for the finder (M-x finder-commentary and friends), that would be useful. Tutorials on Worg are usually written in Org, but you can upload any format you like (or send it it me) and we wil publish it there. OK, I've add comments, keywords, and some docstrings I forgot to org-choose.el, and I wrote a standalone doc. Both are attached.
