27.0.50; print-quoted should default to t |
Date: |
Thu, 11 Jan 2018 11:31:09 -0500 |
Package: Emacs
Version: 27.0.50
I was reviewing some of my local patches and noticed that I tend to
let-bind print-quoted to t everywhere, and it occurred to me that
instead we should simply change the default. I can't remember
a circumstance where I needed print-quoted to be nil (tho I wouldn't be
surprised if this patch ends up finding such a circumstance).
I suggest the patch below (for master, obviously).
