A user may not call `vc-svn-diff', which says `fileset FILES' in its documention, and provide the function with a search pattern. He or she must provide a list. According to emacs/lisp/filesets.el A fileset is either a list of files, a file pattern, a base directory and a search pattern (for files), or an inclusion group (i.e. a base file including other files). but the argument called by `vc-svn-diff' in emacs/lisp/vc-svn.el is only a list. `dolist', which is one of the functions called by the `vc-svn-diff' defun and to which the `fileset' argument applies, cannot handle a search pattern or any of the other last three items. It can only take a list in its second argument. -- Robert J. Chassell GnuPG Key ID: 004B4AC8 bob@rattlesnake.com bob@gnu.org http://www.rattlesnake.com http://www.teak.cc
