Subject: bug#27490: 24.5; Elisp manual explanation of `function-key-map' and its inheritors
Date: Sun, 25 Jun 2017 13:33:03 -0700 (PDT) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <ad913909-0e4f-4a13-8ac7-bac75a48f770@default> (raw)
Nothing is said about `function-key-map' and its inheritance relations,
beyond the fact that local such maps inherit from `f-k-m', and that
`f-k-m' "should not be used directly" (no reason given).
Please consider explaining `function-key-map'.
In http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2017-06/msg00595.html,
for example, Stefan counsels to "just use function-key-map to translate
[touch-event] to []". It's not clear how a reader of the manual would
come to such an understanding.
