Subject: bug#67835: 30.0.50; Error with undocumented disabled commands
Date: Fri, 15 Dec 2023 19:45:13 +0900 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87bkarn3ra.wl@id.domain> (raw)
1. emacs -Q --eval "(progn (defun foo () (interactive)) (put 'foo 'disabled t))"
2. M-x foo RET
Then, I encountered the error message "Wrong type argument:
char-or-string-p, nil". This behavior is different from that in
previous versions, like 27.1, where I received the following message.
| You have invoked the disabled command foo.
| It is disabled because new users often find it confusing.
| Here’s the first part of its description:
|
| << not documented >>
| ...
I also expect similar behavior in 30.0.50.
In 30.0.50, it appears that disabled-command-function in
novice.el triggers this error by executing (insert nil) for
undocumented commands in the following code.
| (insert (condition-case ()
| (documentation cmd)
| (error "<< not documented >>")))
Although omitting a docstring is generally considered poor practice,
triggering an error for such commands might not be intentional
behavior. The corresponding code in 27.1 was as follows:
| (... (or (condition-case ()
| (documentation cmd)
| (error nil))
| "<< not documented >>"))
