Subject: bug#65362: [PATCH] 29.1; Description of `cl-flet' in cl.texi
Date: Fri, 18 Aug 2023 12:23:58 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <86v8dcy7gh.fsf@gnu.org> (raw)

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 187 bytes --]

Hi all,

cl.texi doesn't mention the alternative form of bindings inside
`cl-flet' whereas the docstring does it.  I suggest the change attached
against the emacs-29 branch.

Best, Arash

 @defmac cl-flet (bindings@dots{}) forms@dots{}
 This form establishes @code{let}-style bindings for functions rather
-than values.  Each @var{binding} must be a list of the form
+than values.  Each @var{binding} can take the form @samp{(@var{name}
+@var{exp})} where @var{name} is the function name and @var{exp} is an
+expression that returns the function value to which it should be
+bound.  Otherwise the @var{binding} takes the more common form
 @samp{(@var{name} @var{arglist} @var{body}@dots{})}.  Within
 @var{forms}, any reference to the function @var{name} uses the local
 definition instead of the global one.
