special-display-regexps

[Tyler Smith]

Hi,

I'm trying to set up special display frames. I want to use if for the
following buffers:

*Completions*
*Help*
*help[R](functionname)*

I've tried the following regexps:

(setq special-display-regexps
      '("^\\*Help\\*$"
      "^\\*Completions\\*$"
      "^\\*help\\[R\\]([a-z]*)\\*$"))

This works fine for the first two, but the third doesn't catch. I've
also tried with single \ and double \, as well as simpler things like
"\*help.*" -- this works for regexp searches when I paste the buffer
name into scratch, but they don't work for the special display. What
am I doing wrong?

Thanks,

Tyler
