Subject: bug#15139: 24.3; Error in section 11.9.3 of the Elisp Reference Manual
Date: Tue, 20 Aug 2013 09:54:58 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87mwochhct.fsf@fastmail.co.uk> (raw)
In section 11.9.3 Lexical Binding of the Elisp Reference Manual, the
following forms are given:
(defvar my-ticker nil) ; comment
(let ((x 0))
(setq my-ticker (lambda ()
(setq x (1+ x)))))
(funcall my-ticker)
The manual says that the 3rd form (funcall...) yields `1'. When these
forms are evaluated using C-xC-e, the 3rd form enters the debugger with
the error `void variable x'.
