Subject: bug#13841: 24.3.50; Regression - unreadable `C-h k' help
Date: Sat, 30 Apr 2016 10:14:22 -0800 (GMT-08:00)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <057bdf6b-fa05-4dba-a129-841c96cddbdf@default> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <<83inyzngx7.fsf@gnu.org>>

I agree that user help should show documentation, not just
Lisp code.  But certainly - far more important - not byte code.

The fix for this bug (and any that are similar) is to
use a named function with a doc string.  I think (hope)
we agree about that.

(We can disagree that if a user can read Lisp source code
then s?he should be able to also read byte code, or she
is just as likely to be able to do that.)
