Minor bug. Has probably existed from day 1. emacs -q M-x exit-minibuffer produces this error: No catch for tag: exit, nil There are no doubt other such commands. Since such an error message is unfriendly, it would be better for such commands to instead raise an error saying that the command sho

The new frame is the argument to each of the hook functions. Therefore, it is useful that the selected frame is unchanged. IOW, if a hook function needs to have its argument frame selected then it should select it itself. Makes sense; thanks. ___

Did you actually try to do M-x apropos RET paste RET ? Yes. The apropos command has a list of aliases, e.g. paste => yank. Yes, that is helpful. It works for apropos-documentation as well. But when you scan through the 1600-line *Apropos* buffer (for `apropos-doc yank'), and you co
