Subject: bug#35651: 26.2; doc of `delimit-columns-*' commands
Date: Thu, 9 May 2019 08:11:20 -0700 (PDT)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <6d6bde7f-5f5e-445d-a7d7-85e068acd48e@default> (raw)

The doc strings are woefully inadequate.  "Prettify all columns..."  is
unclear.  The behavior - what the commands do - is not described at all.

And there is nothing in any manual about these commands either.  Users
are forced to consult the code to have any idea of what this "delimit
columns" stuff is all about.

Please do the Emacs thing for these commands: document them for users.
