Gnus/5.13 (Gnus v5.13) Emacs/25.0.94 (gnu/linux) |
I found cases of quoting in several doc strings that appear in the
*Help* buffer as curved quotes, I believe wrongly. I would like to ask
for confirmation that the fixes below are correct and, if so, approval
to push them to emacs-25. Note that the patch for vhdl-mode also
removes a quote that is at least superfluous, if not incorrect.
