Hi. At @item markers , in @subsection Buffer Internals , in @section Object Internals , in internals.texi , in lispref manual, the manual says, This is actually a single marker, and successive elements in its marker @code{chain} are the other markers referring to this buffer text. http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/emacs.git/tree/doc/lispref/internals.texi#n2023 But I think @code{chain} should be markup-ed with @dfn, @emph, or quoted with ` and '. (Or "chain" is some kind of symbol defined in source files? I can't find it.) Thanks.
