Subject: bug#18296: 24.4.50; doc string of `whitespace-mode'
Date: Tue, 19 Aug 2014 07:30:52 -0700 (PDT)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <33f70bf0-28a5-45d3-ad74-dcc4775ca261@default> (raw)

1. Please mention which faces are used for which kinds of highlighting.

2. Wording:

 So, for example, if indentation and indentation::space are
 included in `whitespace-style' list, the indentation value is
 evaluated instead of indentation::space value.

 One reason for not visualize spaces via faces (if `face' is not
 included in `whitespace-style') is to use exclusively for
 cleaning up a buffer.  See `whitespace-cleanup' and
 `whitespace-cleanup-region' for documentation.

A minimal fix:

 For example, if `indentation' and `indentation::space' are included in
 `whitespace-style', the `indentation' value is used instead of the
 `indentation::space' value.

 One reason to not use faces to visualize spaces (i.e., not include
 `face' in `whitespace-style') is to use `whitespace-mode' only for
 cleaning up a buffer.  See `whitespace-cleanup' and
 `whitespace-cleanup-region'.
