Subject: bug#24663: 24.5; doc string of `completion-at-point-functions'
Date: Mon, 10 Oct 2016 14:14:52 -0700 (PDT)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <2178d9e1-fd5c-4045-9a10-d0c45b0de591@default> (raw)

1. Some lines are too long.  Please use fill-column=70 for ordinary
paragraphs.

2. Typo: "in turns" should be ", in turn," (no "s").

3. "the thing at point" means nothing.  Thing at point means something
only for a given type of THING.  There is not just one ("the") thing
at point.

Presumably what is meant here is not a thing at point but some text
preceding point.  It is some text before point that is completed.

4. Add a comma after "nil".

5. Typo: "function of no argument" should be "function of no arguments".

6. " where" should be ", where:" (and that sentence is run-on (too
long).

7. "responsible to preserve" should be "responsible for preserving".
