Subject: bug#43383: 26.3; `toggle-menu-bar-mode-from-frame'
Date: Sun, 13 Sep 2020 20:58:16 +0000 (UTC)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <7f20fd70-b8f0-490d-a3f8-36a7554c6ccd@default> (raw)

I don't understand the doc string:

 Toggle menu bar on or off, based on the status of the current frame.
 See `menu-bar-mode' for more information.

I have no idea what is meant by "based on the status of the current
frame".  Is the status whether it shows the menu-bar?

Furthermore, this seems to be used only in menu Options > Show/Hide.
Which means it's only visible when the menu-bar is visible, right?

Sorry, but I just don't get the point of this command, e.g., compared
to command `menu-bar-mode'.

What's more, the doc string tells you to see the doc string of
`menu-bar-mode'.  But that doesn't explain anything more about
`toggle-menu-bar-mode-from-frame', e.g., how it differs from
`menu-bar-mode'.  It's not even mentioned there.

What is this command - what's its use case?  And can the doc string be
improved?
