Subject: bug#68028: 29.1; (elisp) `pcase Macro': move `rx' before SEQPAT description
Date: Thu, 28 Dec 2023 17:29:32 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <SJ0PR10MB54884D3CF5A2CDC17862EEEDF39EA@SJ0PR10MB5488.namprd10.prod.outlook.com> (raw)

You might as well make this bug "wont-fix",
like the others you closed for this node.
The whole section, particularly this node,
needs a rewrite and reorg. Ignoring that
doesn't help users. Tried to guide you a
bit - sorry for wasting all of our time.
Other `Pattern-Matching Conditional' nodes
are less problematic. The most useful,
particularly for users unfamiliar with
pattern-matching constructs, is the _last_
in the section, `Destructuring with pcase
Patterns'.

(But whaddo I know? I've only been writing
and managing developer docs professionally
for 50 years. I've only been familiar with
FP/LP/constraint pattern-matching languages
for 40 years. Still I try to help out here
a bit - silly me.)
