Subject: symbol `keymap' in a keymap
Date: Wed, 13 Sep 2023 12:48:10 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <PH0PR11MB74709D3B83778A0488FDD182D7F0A@PH0PR11MB7470.namprd11.prod.outlook.com> (raw)

The elisp manual says (23.3 Format of Keymaps):

  """
  A symbol whose function definition is a keymap is also a keymap.
  """

and

  """
  Several kinds of elements may appear in a keymap, after the
  symbol keymap that begins it:
  (type . binding) ...
  (type item-name . binding) ...
  ...
  """
  
It doesn't list _symbol_.

I noticed that the value of `lisp-mode-map' is

  (keymap
   (menu-bar ...)
   ...
   keymap  ; <-
   ...)

According to the first quote, I thought the 2nd `keymap' is a keymap,
so I tried

  (symbol-function 'keymap)

but the result is `nil', which means it's not a keymap.

This section of the manual seems to have omitted something?
