Subject: Re: no doc for `group' in custom :type

Message-ID: <E1IwWbx-0007cF-4E@fencepost.gnu.org> (raw)

The doc bug described below was apparently fixed by just adding an
explanation of the type `group' (in node Common Keywords).
I do not see that. Can you please SHOW the text you are referring
to rather than describing it?
Anyway that is the wrong place to explain a type.
So I just wrote text to expain `group' in Composite Types.
However, the example that should have been changed to use `list' instead of
`group' still uses `group'. See type `alist' in node Simple Types.
Do you mean this?
@smallexample
(defcustom list-alist '(("foo" 1) ("bar" 2) ("baz" 3))
"Each element is a list of the form (KEY VALUE)."
:type '(alist :value-type (group integer)))
@end smallexample
I think it is ok to use `group' if that looks better.
