Subject: bug#66890: 29.1; buffer-size should also accept the buffer's name as string argument
Date: Wed, 01 Nov 2023 16:31:01 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <8734xp77vl.fsf@posteo.de> (raw)
Hello,
The current signature of #'buffer-size is:
(buffer-size &optional BUFFER)
It can only handle actual buffer objects as the argument. Could it be
made to accept the buffer name as a string as well? So that it's
signature would become:
(buffer-size &optional BUFFER-OR-NAME)
Other functions, like #'get-buffer already do this.
Thanks,
