Subject: bug#15422: 24.3.50; `read-string': different parameter name from `read-from-minibuffer'
Date: Fri, 20 Sep 2013 08:02:17 -0700 (PDT) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <11d850fa-d73e-4699-a11c-50efa70d297c@default> (raw)
`read-string' calls its parameter INITIAL-INPUT.
`read-from-minibuffer' calls its parameter INITIAL-CONTENTS.
But the doc string of `read-string' says that parameter INITIAL-INPUT
"behaves as in `read-from-minibuffer'", which clearly makes no sense
since `r-f-m' has no such parameter.
The two should have the same name if the doc for one refers to the
other.
