Re: Overlong nodes in the Emacs Lisp Manual

[Richard M. Stallman]

    Please note that in the Emacs Lisp Reference Manual there are already
    four shorter nodes

    (info "(elisp)Syntax of Regexps")
    (info "(elisp)Regexp Special")
    (info "(elisp)Regexp Backslash")
    (info "(elisp)Regexp Example")

    that almost completely duplicate the text in (emacs)Regexps.

I know they cover the same topics.  (I think there are some differences
in details of the way the text is written.)

I think that regexp syntax is so important that we should not omit it
from the Lisp manual.
