Subject: bug#22926: 24.5; `shell-command', `shell-command-default-error-buffer'
Date: Sun, 6 Mar 2016 07:14:47 -0800 (PST) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <97b7c9cf-83fc-4d10-8f2b-836132fcc5ca@default> (raw)
1. Doc string of `shell-command': Mention that you are prompted for the
command.
2. `shell-command-default-error-buffer': Make it a user option.
3. In general, orient the doc a bit more toward interactive use.
Especially since the doc suggests that it is especially for
interactive use:
In Elisp, you will often be better served by calling `call-process' or
`start-process' directly, since it offers more control and does not impose
the use of a shell (with its need to quote arguments).
4. Also, some lines in the doc string are too long (but not by much: 74
chars max instead of 70).
