Subject: bug#17993: 24.4.50; doc string of `hi-lock-file-patterns-prefix'
Date: Thu, 10 Jul 2014 09:39:19 -0700 (PDT)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <9b8049e8-1a4f-4e25-8524-10325ddc0476@default> (raw)


Doc string:

  Search target for finding hi-lock patterns at top of file.

This is a variable.  The description is confusing/unclear, because
"Search" is too easily parsed as a verb (as opposed to parsing "Search
target" as a noun phrase: the target of a search).

And explain: (a) what such a pattern is, (b) what "top of file" means,
and (c) what search is involved.
