Subject: bug#9819: 24.0.50; Docstring of `define-minor-mode' and KEYMAP
Date: Fri, 21 Oct 2011 00:57:49 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <86sjmns236.fsf@dogan.se> (raw)
I read in the docstring of `define-minor-mode':
<quote>
Optional KEYMAP is the default keymap bound to the mode keymap.
If non-nil, it should be a variable name (whose value is a keymap),
or an expression that returns either a keymap or a list of
arguments for `easy-mmode-define-keymap'. If KEYMAP is not a symbol,
this also defines the variable MODE-map.
[...]
:keymap MAP Same as the KEYMAP argument.
</quote>
The way I interpret that is: if I don't pass a KEYMAP argument, it will
define a variable named `MODE-map'. However, this doesn't happen when I
use this code:
<quote>
(define-minor-mode helo-track-minor-mode
"Global minor mode for tracking activity in helo buffers."
:init-value nil
:lighter ""
:global t
:group 'helo
[...]
</quote>
Am I misunderstanding the docstring or is this a bug?
Deniz
