It is fine to refer to another doc string for the description (that only requires a click by the user). It is not fine for the doc string to say nothing about the parameter. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 3+ messages in thread

If it's obvious what the parameters do, wittering on about them in the doc strings serve no purpose. These are all pretty internalish functions. If you don't get that the meaning of REGEXP-FLAG in all these functions means that we're doing regexp searches instead of non-regexp searches, you're probably doing something wrong. -- (domestic pets only, the antidote for overdose, milk.) bloggy blog http://lars.ingebrigtsen.no/ ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 3+ messages in thread
