Subject: Re: Documentation not clear for the Lisp function set-variable
Date: Tue, 28 Jun 2005 14:47:52 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <E1DnL7g-0004zK-38@fencepost.gnu.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <87vf3ztg62.fsf@jurta.org> (message from Juri Linkov on Tue, 28 Jun 2005 03:07:44 +0300)

    Maybe set-variable should first try to complete non-obsolete aliases,
    and filter out obsolete aliases (but still accept them).

I don't like that idea.  The command should accept *all* names,
whether obsolete or not.  But it would be nice to inform the user in
the echo area that the name is obsolete, and give the new name if any.
