It does to me too, and that's the problem. The docstring says the following : > Value is t if waited the full time with no input arriving, and nil > otherwise. I said earlier: > Maybe this part of the docstring should be slightly changed to say > that a negative or null value of SECONDS is not considered to be fully > waited if an input was pending before the call to sit-for. I think the current docstring is ambiguous on this point: if seconds is <=3D 0, one could think that _whatever the input_ SECONDS is considered to be fully waited, whilst it's not the case. =2D-=20 | Micha=EBl `Micha' Cadilhac | Un certain Blaise Pascal = | | Epita/LRDE Promo 2007 | etc... etc... = | | http://michael.cadilhac.name | -- Pr=E9vert (Les paris stupides) = | `-- - JID: micha@amessage.be --' - -= -' --=-=-= Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.2 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFFBXEaZYNf4qobZ7kRAuoqAJ0eWkcEjLJGrhHW5NCsJXuDyiM3cACeNr+J xAL4RYfpe1KICKuxGTLdics= =XmqX -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-=-=-- --===============1652254883== Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: inline _______________________________________________ Emacs-devel mailing list Emacs-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-devel --===============1652254883==--
