Subject: bug#33382: 26; doc string of `abbrev-prefix-mark'
Date: Wed, 14 Nov 2018 07:35:34 -0800 (PST)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <c040c8cd-5ac0-44e7-9a12-341ba3e4537b@default> (raw)

(Minor)

The doc string says that the command inserts a temporary hyphen,
temporary until the intended abbrev expansion occurs.

It might be better to say that it inserts a hyphen, and to add that if
the command is later followed by an abbrev expansion then this hyphen is
removed.  That clearly says what _this_ command does, and separates that
from other changes that might come later from other commands.  (If you
don't follow `M-'' with abbrev expansion then the hyphen is not
removed.)
