I think "precisely" is an overstatement. I'd find it helpful here if other people would step in and say how they find the existing documentation of paragraphs, paragraph-start and paragraph-separate. If others also find it confusing and obscure, then it should be improved, and I'm willing to do the improving. If, on the other hand, others can read and understand it without too much difficulty, then it's my personal problem which I'll have to deal with myself in private. -- Alan Mackenzie (Munich, Germany) _______________________________________________ Emacs-devel mailing list Emacs-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-devel
