;; Bugged: read-abbrev-file function in abbrev.el
;; The `(interactive "f' - kontroll-letter takes just
;; the current buffer-file if you quit the demand
;; with RET. That's not what you want: If the file is
;; already open, there is no need to call
;; `read-abbrev-file', the `default-abbrev-file' should
;; be called in the case of no specified user input.
;; Proposed fix:
;; Loads the default-abbrev-file unless no file is specified.
(defalias 'read-abbrev-file 'read-abbrev-file-ar)
(defun read-abbrev-file-ar (&optional file quietly)
"Read abbrev definitions from file written with `write-abbrev-file'.
Optional argument FILE is the name of the file to read;
it defaults to the value of `abbrev-file-name'.
Optional second argument QUIETLY non-nil means don't print anything."
