Yes.  I guess I meant that I haven't looked at much
in that file.

I have the 27 pretest, so I have (at least some version)
of `easy-mmode--arg-docstring'; thx.

Yes, that's presumably what I suggest should be changed.

And I guess where that Lisp info gets inserted could be
reconsidered.  This bug report suggests maybe putting it
at the end of the doc string.  Most calls of a minor-mode
command will be interactive.  And I'm arguing in favor of
making the Lisp description of ARG more correct/complete.
Perhaps, especially if that's done, it makes sense to
relegate such info to the end.
