- The set-face-*-p family of functions all have an argument *-P (for
example, INVERSE-VIDEO-P, BOLD-P, etc.). However, in the case of
`set-face-underline-p' this is misleading, because UNDERLINE-P is not
a flag (it can also be a color). Will someone object if I just change
arg UNDERLINE-P to UNDERLINE and fix the info in the Emacs Lisp
Reference (which doesn't mention the color option)? (This would also
affect `modify-face', BTW.)
This function has been around for a long time, so let's not think of
changing its name now.
- I know `internal-find-face' and `internal-get-face' are obsolete
since 21.1, but their docstrings lie horribly about the FRAME
argument. Wouldn't be better to just say "The argument FRAME is
ignored"?
Ok.
- Shouldn't `face-id' return an answer also for face aliases? I.e., instead of
In principle, that sounds right, but I don't want to risk the change now.
- `face-differs-from-default-p' checks all face attributes except
:inherit (obviously) and :stipple. Should it check :stipple?
Yes, if there is really a bug. Can you verify that there is one?
