Subject: Lisp mode doc, and Lisp indentation props
Date: Sun, 9 Aug 2015 09:36:52 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20150809162713.28164.01394993@ahiker.mooo.com> (raw)

Is there a document (Info format preferred, but another format would be
ok of course) describing the Emacs Lisp mode, from a _user_ POV,
similarly to how CC mode is documented, for example?  Strangely, I
cannot find one.

The specific information I'm after is about those little properties on
symbols that make some forms indent specially.  For example, what is
responsible for this difference:

(call-foo-with-args (nested-call arg1)
                    arg2)

vers.

(when (nested-call arg1)
  arg2)

?
