24.2.50; find-cmd: `find-constituents' lacks "readable" |
Date: |

Hello,
yes, the "-readable" test of find has no counterpart in
`find-constituents'. Dunno if other stuff is also missing. Maybe
someone should go through the "find" manpage and supplement
`find-constituents'.
And, btw, the user may want to modify `find-constituents' himself,
e.g. because entries are missing, or he wants to add own abbrevs. So,
shouldn't `find-constituents' be a defvar, and not a defconst?
Thanks,
Michael.

Done (in trunk), thanks.

The defconst just signifies that the variable is unlikely to change over
the course of normal Emacs usage; should the user want to modify it,
there is nothing stopping her from doing so.
