Greetings,
This bug is for emacs lisp intro manual version 24.2.1. In section
8.4, "Digression into C", the following statement appears:
* The first part is the name given to the function in Lisp,
`delete-and-extract-region'.
The code sample that this refers to actually shows the text
'buffer-substring-no-properties'. There is a similar flaw with the
subsequent bullet-point, which states:
* The second part is the name of the function in C,
`Fdelete_and_extract_region'. By convention, it starts with `F'.
Since C does not use hyphens in names, underscores are used
instead.
I recently enjoyed reading through the "Emacs Lisp Intro" and this was
the only glaring error I noticed.
