This example includes a URL line. Later, the reader is directed to https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/elisp/Library-Headers.html#Library-Headers for more information about the available headers. This second page makes no mention of the URL line, and instead describes a Homepage line. Surveying the Emacs source code, it turns out that both URL and Homepage are used, although Homepage is more popular. Should one of URL and Homepage be preferred to the other? Are they aliases? Is one of these a typo? -- Peter Oliver
