Subject: literal newlines in @result{} strings
Date: 29 Aug 2005 19:33:14 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <jkr7ccfhdx.fsf@glug.org> (raw)
i'm currently looking at text.texi (as part of the required review
indicated in admin/FOR-RELEASE) and see two instances of a newline
literal in the @result{} string, both in examples, one for
`buffer-string' and one for `buffer-substring':
@result{} "This is the contents of buffer foo
"
@result{} "he contents of buffer foo
"
for `thing-at-point' i see:
@result{} "Gentlemen may cry ``Peace! Peace!,''\n"
which has the `\n' instead of a literal newline. i'd like to change the
former two to resemble the latter. any objections? any reason to go in
the opposite direction?
