Hi,
I use official prebuilt GNU Emacs on Windows XP. I get an error
"void-function" both for `network-interface-list' and for
`network-interface-info'. Is this a bug? (They are unknown for
`describe-function', but documented in (elisp)Misc Network...)
Thanks,
P

This is a documentation bug: these functions are available only on
some systems, which support special ioctl commands that are the basis
for the implementation of these functions (notably, GNU/Linux).
Windows doesn't support that functionality, so the functions are not
available.
I will update the ELisp manual accordingly (and try to look for a
possible alternative implementation on Windows).
Thanks for pointing this out (but in the future, please post this to
bug-gnu-emacs or emacs-devel, not here).

Yes, I planned to report this at the bug-group, if you answer so, but
thought it is better not to report there while I am unsure... In the
future I'll ask there such things directly.
Thanks!
