Subject: bug#13715: 24.2; Invalid function when calling sql-connect
Date: Sun, 10 Mar 2013 18:54:42 -0700 (PDT) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1362966882.70002.YahooMailNeo@web160906.mail.bf1.yahoo.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <a67gmal50b.fsf@fencepost.gnu.org>
This was a documentation error, version 3.2 corrects this, and the "Wrong number of arguments" error.
Replaced "symbol" with "case-insensitive string"
Thanks for the report.
