Subject: bug#40460: 26.3; Make arg of `forward-whitespace' and `forward-symbol' optional
Date: Sun, 5 Apr 2020 17:32:27 -0700 (PDT) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <cc3a5050-9922-423b-819b-f594a502eaa8@default> (raw)
I see no reason why these commands are handled differently from
`forward-sexp', `forward-word', etc. Why is their arg not optional?
That makes no difference when they are used interactively, but for Lisp
code, why not make they be like other `forward-<thing>' functions?
