Subject: bug#55761: 28.1; improvement on doc string

Message-ID: <2170.1654170836@localhost> (raw)

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 627 bytes --]


I'd like to propose the attached patch.

Here is a portion of output of C-h f find-file RET:
,----
| Switch to a buffer visiting file FILENAME,
| [...]
| type M-x next-history-element to pull it into the minibuffer.
| 
| The first time M-x next-history-element is used after Emacs prompts for
| [...]
| current directory to be available on first M-x next-history-element
| request.
`----
The appearances of "M-x next-history-element" don't look nice to me. I
hope the attached patch to be a starting point for revising the doc
strings of `find-file' and its cousins.

Regards,
Ikumi Keita
