Subject: bug#60470: 26.3; Doc string of `recentf-keep'
Date: Sun, 1 Jan 2023 16:39:40 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <SJ0PR10MB5488A5BEFCDA0CFD0503A5E7F3F69@SJ0PR10MB5488.namprd10.prod.outlook.com> (raw)

Please consider saying in the doc string what it means to "keep" a file
name in the recent list.

The doc string goes into what it means to be a predicate, but it says
nothing, really, about what this option means/does, because it tells you
nothing about what "keeping" amounts to.

Also, a nit: when used as a noun phrase, "filename" should be "file
name".  (When used as an adjective before a noun phrase it should be
"file-name".  We use (should use) "filename" only in some function
etc. names, not in the doc.
