Subject: bug#29842: 27.0; `dired-change-marks': args should not be optional
Date: Sun, 24 Dec 2017 09:58:02 -0800 (PST) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <b6b4e366-2b7d-4032-8ad0-546372181bd5@default> (raw)
1. There is no use of this function in the Emacs Lisp sources that needs
to have the args be optional.
2. If (dired-change-marks) is evaluated then you get an error:
Debugger entered--Lisp error: (error "Format specifier doesn't match
argument type")
format("\n%c" "nil")
dired-change-marks()
eval((dired-change-marks))
This bug is apparently quite old - it is present in Emacs 20, for
example.
In GNU Emacs 27.0.50 (build 4, x86_64-w64-mingw32)
