23.3; doc of `face-list' |
Date: |
Tue, 20 Sep 2011 10:32:17 -0700 |
Both doc string and Elisp manual say that `face-list' returns a list of
face names. This is incorrect or at least misleading. A "name" value
in Emacs typically refers to a string value. The doc should say clearly
that the list elements are face _symbols_, not face "names".
In GNU Emacs 23.3.1 (i386-mingw-nt5.1.2600)
of 2011-03-10 on 3249CTO
Windowing system distributor `Microsoft Corp.', version 5.1.2600

Indeed, thank you. Actually, they're just faces. And faces happen to
be represented by symbols.
Should be fixed now,
Stefan
