Subject: what does (interactive "P") do?
Date: Wed, 20 Nov 2002 14:20:13 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20021120142013.A15843@spawar.navy.mil> (raw)

I just saw (interactive "P") in a .emacs and
wondered what it did.  I assume (interactive)
lets a user run a function v. just being
run from another function.

What extra functiononality does the "P" give you?

Chris
