This includes keywords, numbers, and strings. > However, that doesn't apply to t and nil, instead, they are covered by > the SYMBOL clause. I think the problem is in the wording: t and nil are neither keywords, nor numbers, nor strings, which is why they aren't treated as SELFQUOTING. IOW the wording shouldn't say "including" but make it clear that these are the (currently) only accepted selfquoting entities. E.g. vectors (and friends) aren't considered as SELFQUOTING by pcase either. Stefan
