Subject: bug#226: Introduction to Emacs Lisp
Date: Mon, 12 May 2008 10:01:16 -0700 (PDT) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <899688.43250.qm@web46011.mail.sp1.yahoo.com> (raw)
In the "Introduction to Emacs Lisp" Book, under List Processing:Lisp- Lists:Lisp Atoms, the eighth paragraph contains the following:
"
In addition, text between double quotation marks--even sentences or
paragraphs--is an atom. Here is an example:
'(this list includes "text between quotation marks.")
"
The phrase "In addition" may be a little ambiguous to some readers, as it also sounds similar to the mathematical addition operation. Perhaps it could be replaced with something like "Furthermore"?
