Great!
A few comments on use-package.texi from briefly skimming the file:
- It appears to be mentioning a few packages that are not available on
GNU ELPA or NonGNU ELPA (e.g. git-gutter+, eruby-mode, dash-at-point,
ess, color-moccur, moccur-edit, unfill). Should they be replaced
with other packages to make sure the examples are consistently
reproducible?
- Why is "Debian GNU/Linux" formatted using @code?
- Under the node "Byte-compiling", is the "@end group" in the
"use-package ruby-mode" block intended to be placed where it is?
- Is "NonGNU" an acronym itself?
- Some packages are formatted as @file's (hydra, ivy, diminish, delight,
...). Does this really make sense?
- MELPA is mention under vindex `use-package-always-pin', is this ok.
AFAIR there was some decision to not mention MELPA in the official
documentation (currently this also appears to be the only instance).
- Under "Modes and interpreters", the file extension .rb is formatted
using @samp, while (texinfo) @file implies that @file is the right
macro for this situation.
- It appears that use-package is sometimes formatted using @code and
sometimes not. I can't make out a consistent rule.
- GNU ELPA is also inconsistently marked up as a single or two separate
acronyms.
- There is still an instance of "see @ref" under the node "Global
keybindings".
