Re: [O] [PATCH] Fix clocktable scope parameter

[Eduardo Bellani]

org-clock.el: Fix clocktable scope parameter

* lisp/org-clock.el (org-dblock-write:clocktable): Funcall the scope
  argument if it is a function.

* doc/org.texi: Document the feature of using a function, both bounded
  and as a lambda form, as the scope for the clocktable.

This modifies the behavior of the scope parameter to have as scope both
a list of file paths or a nullary function that returns such a list.
