COMMAND should be a symbol. A new sparse keymap is stored as COMMAND's function definition and its val= ue. If a second optional argument MAPVAR is given, the map is stored as its value instead of as COMMAND's value; but COMMAND is still defined as a function. The third optional argument NAME, if given, supplies a menu name string for the map. This is required to use the keymap as a menu. This function returns COMMAND. 1. It is not at all clear what the occurrence of "its" in the 4th sentence ("If a second...") refers to. And this part of the doc string should explicitly say what MAPVAR is: a symbol that is used as a variable - it is given the map as value. 2. The second line of the doc string is too long - should not be more than 70 chars long.
