Subject: bug#55755: 26.3; Doc string of `delete-selection-repeat-replace-region'
Date: Wed, 1 Jun 2022 18:49:36 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <SJ0PR10MB54883EEF4556B7AF1D4BF0A4F3DF9@SJ0PR10MB5488.namprd10.prod.outlook.com> (raw)

The doc string says this (still, in Emacs 29 master today):

  `\\[universal-argument]' means until end of buffer.

That's incorrect.  It should say this, or equivalent:

  `\\[universal-argument]' means repeat until reaching `point-max'.

If the buffer is narrowed then "end of buffer" is incorrect.  

"end of the visible portion of the buffer" or some such would also be
OK, though less precise.
