Message-ID: <E1BLhN3-0000lY-44@fencepost.gnu.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <200405060505.OAA21188@etlken.m17n.org> (message from Kenichi Handa on Thu, 6 May 2004 14:05:45 +0900 (JST))
fails because the function temp_output_buffer_setup calls
Ferase_buffer and it signals the error "Text is read-only".
Should we bind inhibit-read-only to t while calling
Ferase_buffer,
That is the right fix.
or modify Ferase_buffer itself so that it
doesn't signal the above error?
This would be incorrect.
As a general principle: don't make a general facility less natural or
harder to describe, in order to solve a problem that occurs with a
specific use of that facility. Instead, fix the specific use.
Only change the general facility if there's a reason to think
it would be better, as a general facility, with the change.
