There appears to be a simple typo in the documetation:
https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/eintr/message.html#message
"The whole string between double quotation marks is a single argument
and is printed in toto"
....in toto ????
I'm a noob to emacs!!
Many thanx for all the work that the emacs team (past, present,
future) does to keep this software moving forward.

"In toto" means "as a whole", see, for example
