Note that the cited sexp from faces.el is now at line 1360, not 1307. From: Stephen Berman Subject: describe-face: Wrong type argument: symbolp, (:slant oblique) Newsgroups: gmane.emacs.devel To: emacs-devel@gnu.org Date: Mon, 26 May 2008 00:59:57 +0200 In GNU Emacs 23.0.60.4 (i686-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.12.0) of 2008-05-25 on escher 1. emacs -q 2. Put the cursor on any of the characters in the phrase "ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY" in the splash screen. 3. Type C-u C-x = 4. In the resulting *Help* buffer click on the link labelled "(variable-pitch (:slant oblique))" => Emacs beeps and throws the error in the Subject line. This happens at line 1307 in faces.el, which is this sexp: (insert "Face: " (symbol-name f)) when `f' gets the value `(:slant oblique)', which it does because the list '(variable-pitch (:slant oblique)) is the value of 'face in the plist of the character at point (as shown by text-properties-at). I don't know what the best fix is. (In earlier versions of Emacs, including CVS trunk of 2007-08-24, this value was '(variable-pitch :slant oblique), and doing the above steps does not raise an error, but the resulting *Help* buffer contains these dubious lines: Face: :slant undefined face. Face: oblique undefined face. But in this version a wrong type argument error is also raised by the above recipe for plist 'face values such as '(variable-pitch :foreground "red"), on the string. I could not determine when the change in the representation of the plist value of 'face occurred, because I couldn't figure out which part of the code constructs this plist.)

Since anonymous faces can't be usefully customized, I've changed describe-face to ignore those. Thanks for the bug report. ------------=_1231695305-10699-0--
