I hadn't got round to checking whether that happened, or whether it picked up a doc string from one of the other definitions. I was also thinking that there would not be many users of the MS-DOS build wanting to look at the doc of the x-* functions, so rather than you having to keep them in sync all the time, you could just remove them. Eg there are already many compat x-* functions without docs in pc-win.el. > So for now, I sync'ed the doc strings with the X sources. Thanks. It still leaves the initial problem I noticed of the argument names being lost. I wonder if it helps if to also add the "(fn ..." part to the end of the pc-win.el doc strings?
