Lisp_functions should distinguish between defvar and other (def* constructs, and tag the former only if --declarations. Would you consider a different patch that looks at the declarations global variable and distinguishes among "(defvar" and other "(def" contructs? Such a change would reuire to be reflected in the help strings, the man page and the info docs. I can do that myself, but I cannot guarantee a deadline earlier than some weeks from now. >I found the tripe-negative of while(!noninname) hard to follow and >thought a skip_name() could be clearer. I agree.
