In the "Face Attribute Functions" section of Emacs Lisp Reference
Manual (info "(elisp) Attribute Functions"), `read-face-name' is used
as an example for `face-attribute-relative-p':
- Function: face-attribute-relative-p attribute value
This function returns non-`nil' if VALUE, when used as the value
of the face attribute ATTRIBUTE, is relative. This means it would
modify, rather than completely override, any value that comes from
a subsequent face in the face list or that is inherited from
another face.
`unspecified' is a relative value for all attributes. For
`:height', floating point values are also relative.
For example:
(read-face-name "Describe face" "= `default' face" t)
prompts with `Describe face (default = `default' face): '.
What is the relation between the example and the function?
If this example is correct, there should be a rationale at least,
i.m.o.

Guanpeng Xu

Thanks.
