Your bug report will be posted to the emacs-pretest-bug@gnu.org mailing lis= t. Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug and the precise symptoms of the bug: I came across: ,----[ (info "(elisp)Abbrev Tables") ] | -- =BA=AF=CA=FD: clear-abbrev-table table | This function undefines all the abbrevs in abbrev table TABLE, | leaving it empty. It always returns `nil'. `---- However after experimenting with it, I have the impression that it returns the number of abbrevs being cleared. Please take a look at this. Leo
