Subject: Re: [PATCH v3] Allow applying filters to summary consecutively
Date: Mon, 07 Nov 2022 15:13:13 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <874jvaont2.fsf@autistici.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <8335aw35a1.fsf@gnu.org> (message from Eli Zaretskii on Sun, 06 Nov 2022 09:34:30 +0200)


The words "negate" and "intersect" come from logic and mathematics.
They might not be especially common, but they are very precise.  So I
kept them and expanded on their meaning in the rest of the docstrings.
