Subject: Confusing doc string of list-or-string at point
Date: Thu, 23 Sep 2021 20:06:38 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <83a6k3uspt.fsf@gnu.org> (raw)

The doc string says:

  Like `thing-at-point-bounds-of-list-at-point', but also
  prefer to find of any enclosing string."

"Prefer to find of" is clearly a typo of sorts, but I don't have a
clear idea what you wanted to say there.  The same problem is with the
NEWS entry.

Thanks.
