Subject: `Man-default-man-entry' - remove or not remove section numbers
Date: Wed, 19 Dec 2007 10:48:05 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4768E8D5.7020307@gmx.at> (raw)
`Man-default-man-entry' has the following contradictory behavior:
The following code
(when (looking-at "[ \t\r\n]+\\([-a-zA-Z0-9._+:]+\\)([0-9])")
(setq word (concat word (match-string-no-properties 1))))
removes the section number for the returned value. The comment and code
below
;; If looking at something like ioctl(2) or brc(1M), include the
;; section number in the returned value. Remove text properties.
(concat word
(if (looking-at
(concat "[ \t]*([ \t]*\\(" Man-section-regexp "\\)[ \t]*)"))
(format "(%s)" (match-string-no-properties 1)))))))
explicitly vote for keeping it. What's the preferred behavior here?
Also can someone please explain why this is a `defsubst'?
