bug#734: 23.0.60; Interactively use a list argument to replace-string + missing documentation |

I learned from a post in gnu.emacs.help that the second argument to
replace-string can be a list of strings. In this case the elements of
the list are used in cyclic order. It appears that this feature can't
be used when the function is used interactively. I think this can be
a very useful feature and should probably be accessible interactively.
Also this behavior is not documented in the doc string or the info page
of replace-string -- although it is documented in the info page for
perform-replace function.
Thanks,
Nikos
