Subject: bug#55738: character escape bugs in the reader
Date: Thu, 2 Jun 2022 17:12:22 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <D66D2458-3C55-4D49-B687-059A9FEDAC13@acm.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <87h75414co.fsf@tcd.ie>

Looks like there is code like

                     (setq bits (+ bits ?\C-\^@))

where the author wanted just the 'control' bit, and even

  (should (equal (kbd "C-RET") [?\C-\C-m]))

and while these are debatable in style (I'd prefer ?C-\0 to produce the control bit), the risk of breaking external code is too great.

Thus I'm scaling back ambitions a bit and have committed a much-reduced patch that just deals with the ?\LF part.
