Subject: Re: Optional third argument - name not mentioned in docstring
Date: Wed, 11 Jan 2006 08:55:56 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <E1EwgSC-0007O6-2X@fencepost.gnu.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <43C3DDAD.4030600@student.lu.se> (message from Lennart Borgman on Tue, 10 Jan 2006 17:15:41 +0100)

    In the doc strings for `search-forward' and `search-backward' the 
    argument names "bound" etc are not mentioned. Instead the doc strings 
    just says:

	Optional third argument, if t, ...

    Should not the names be mentioned?

It is better to mention the names, but I'd rather not go on a campaign
just now to change them all.
