Subject: Re: Max-specpdl-size Bug in Emacs Lisp Interpreter?
Date: Tue, 18 Apr 2006 16:50:36 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <E1FVx9g-0002kx-IQ@fencepost.gnu.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <200604180544.k3I5iJi9005578@jane.dms.auburn.edu> (message from Luc Teirlinck on Tue, 18 Apr 2006 00:44:19 -0500 (CDT))

The name `max-specpdl-size' can be read as implying an inherent maximum
one that cannot be exceeded.  By contrast, the term `limit' seems to fit
an adjustable, arbitrary maximum--which is what this variable is.
