Please write in English if possible, because the Emacs maintainers
usually do not have translators to read other languages for them.

Your bug report will be posted to the emacs-pretest-bug@gnu.org mailing list.

Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug
and the precise symptoms of the bug:



etc/PROBLEMS gives the command example:

	 emacs -q -batch -f list-load-path-shadows

However, it should be

	 emacs -q --batch -f list-load-path-shadows

(Note the "--" in front of "batch").

A single "-" works fine too, as you can see eg from EMACSOPT in
lisp/Makefile.in in the Emacs sources. Or by testing it.
