+ Giant docstring parameter/Texinfo fixes.
+
+ Don't use abbreviations for English words, especially when those
+ words have other meanings. For example, use START, not BEG.
+ Use OBJECT, not OBJ.
+ Use VALUE, not VAL.
+ Use BUFFER, not BUF.
+ Use PROCESS, not PROC. (Sometimes PROC was used to mean FUNCTION!)
+ Use CHARACTER, not CH or CHR.
+ Use NUMBER, not NUM.
+ Use COLUMN, not COL.
+ Use POSITION, not POS.
+ Use SYMBOL, not SYM.
+ Use STRING, not STR.
+ Use LIMIT, not LIM.
+ Use OTHER-WINDOW-P, not OTHER-P.
+ Use PRIORITY, not PRI.
+
+ Use `non-nil', not `true'.
+
+ Don't call a parameter an ALIST if it can also be a FUNCTION or OBARRAY.
+
+ Use CASE-TABLE, CATEGORY-TABLE, CHAR-TABLE, etc. instead of TABLE.
+
+ Try to find better parameter names than ARG.
+
+ Use consistent parameter names. For example, s/NO-ERROR/NOERROR/g;
+
+ Use type information in parameter names. For example, use
+ (make-bit-vector length bit), not (make-bit-vector length init).
+
+ Completion functions should have parameters with names like
+ PARTIAL-FILENAME instead of the misleading FILENAME.
+
+ Type predicates should consistently take an OBJECT parameter,
+ since any object is valid as input.
+
+ Use WHICH-FRAMES and WHICH-DEVICES parameters consistently for
+ functions like next-window and next-frame that walk over window or
+ frame lists.
+
+ Deleted duplicated documentation for:
+ one-window-p, format-insert-file
+
+ Deleted 21 lines of VMS-specific texinfo documentation.
+
+ Fixed up a few places where `_' was used in docstring parameter
+ names instead of `-'.
+
+ Fixed up places that used nil or t without @code.
+
+ Fixed up places that erroneously used @code instead of @var.
+
+ Fixed many typos.
+
+ Fixed many places where the parameters mentioned in the docstring
+ didn't match the actual parameters.
+
+ Fixed 7 places that used `@var{nil}' instead of `@code{nil}'.
+
+ Fixed 40 places where docstrings were missing trailing `.'
+
+ Fixed the texi documentation of 41 functions where the
+ interactiveness of the function in the documentation did not match
+ the implementation.
+
+ Fixed 117 functions where the names of parameters in the texi was
+ different from the names in the implementation.
+
+ Fixed the texi documentation of 137 functions where the parameter
+ list of the function in the texi was semantically different from
+ the implementation.
+
+2000-10-28 Adrian Aichner <adrian@xemacs.org>
+
+ * xemacs-faq.texi (Q1.2.1): Use @html instead of @ifhtml to
