Perhaps best illustrated with examples. Here's what's implemented in master now (either works): (format "=E2=80=98add-to-list=E2=80=99 can't use var =E2=80=98%s=E2=80= =99; use =E2=80=98push=E2=80=99 or =E2=80=98cl-pushnew=E2=80=99" sym) (format "%q can't use var %qs; use %qs or %qs" "add-to-list" sym "push= "=20 "cl-pushnew") Digraphs were proposed, but not implemented: (format "% can't use var %<%s%>; use % or=20 %" sym) There are lots of other possibilities of course, but these have been the = main=20 ones considered so far.
