Subject: Docstring of rename-buffer
Date: Wed, 24 Aug 2011 14:42:28 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <871uwbq8uj.fsf@gmail.com> (raw)
[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 196 bytes --]
rename-buffer currently prompts "Rename buffer (to new name)", which
feels a bit clumsy (the parenthesis is here to dispel an ambiguity that
could be avoided in the first place). How about this?
