Well, when reading specifications, I tend to put common sense apart and look at the literal meaning :) I think that the way it is worded it may sound ambguous. in fact, it has sounded wrong for me. So, why not add a single word to clarify things? >There are about 130 instances of this form in Emacs. >There are 4 instances of ", also enable", maybe you prefer that? I suppose you mean something like: -- With a prefix argument ARG, enable Auto Fill mode if ARG is positive, and disable it otherwise. If called from Lisp, also enable the mode if ARG is omitted or nil. Yes, maybe it is even clearer and simpler than what I proposed. >Feel feel to correct them all, I guess, if it bothers you that much. :) Ok, that amounts to probably never. In the last years I have barely the time to report bugs and follow up on them. Not even always. Thanks anyway. >See also #13926, and #10754. An automatic solution like 10754 seems >best to me. This is a special week, when I have little workload and am trying to shorten my backlog. Maybe one day I will find the time and energy to look at those. Maybe tomorrow, maybe never, who knows :)
