Subject: [BUG] CVS HEAD "find-file-confirm-inexistent-file" in lisp/files.el
Date: Sun, 01 Jul 2007 16:05:14 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <863b07ybbp.fsf@blue.stonehenge.com> (raw)


This is a broken new feature (misfeature)?

First, the spelling is wrong.  You want nonexistent, not inexistent.

Second, the default is *different* than the prepatched behavior.  This scared
me enough to go find out what happened.  If you add new behavior, please
default to previous behavior, or prepare to explain why the change is needed.

Third, the variable isn't customizable.  What year is this, 1998?

Please back this out of CVS HEAD and prepare a proper change.
