I'm sure I've missed + instances, both here and in the docstrings, but this is a decent + start. + + * lispref/text.texi (Columns): + Document where only fixnums, not integers generally, are accepted. + (Registers): + Remove some ancient char-int confoundance here. + * lispref/strings.texi (Creating Strings, Creating Strings): + Be more exact in describing where fixnums but not integers in + general are accepted. + (Creating Strings): Use a more contemporary example to illustrate + how concat deals with lists including integers about #xFF.
