Subject: bug#23429: 25.0.90; `dired-do-find-regexp' doc string
Date: Mon, 2 May 2016 10:57:31 -0700 (PDT) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <ff237938-583b-4ae2-8b5b-08474e53c65a@default> (raw)
"Find all matches for REGEXP in all marked files, recursively."
What does it mean to find matches in a particular marked file,
_recursively_? This seems to be a nonsense description.
If what you mean is that the marked files in a marked _subdirectory_
are searched, and so on for its marked subdirs, recursively - then
say so.
If you don't mean something like that then I cannot imagine what this
means. How can a _file_ (marked or not) be searched recursively?
