Re: Bug in htmlize.el

Marcus Harnisch writes: In Lisp, "change by side effect" always means "this is an optimization that reuses existing conses, and potentially has unexpected consequences if you have variables that contain subobjects of this object." Variables containing a list structure must always be refreshed by set'ting them after such operations. There are a couple score such functions in XEmacs proper, and probably as many more in cl.el and friends. I don't think such basic information should be repeated so many times in the docstrings, although perhaps there should be a manual node on it. (I'm happy to listen to arguments otherwise, but that's how I think about it now.) _______________________________________________ XEmacs-Beta mailing list XEmacs-Beta(a)xemacs.org http://lists.xemacs.org/mailman/listinfo/xemacs-beta
