Add a couple of extra docstring backslashes, #'format-time-string 2010-09-05 Aidan Kehoe <kehoea@parhasard.net> * editfns.c (Fformat_time_string): Use two backslashes so that there is at least one present in the output of describe function, when describing the Roman month number syntax in this function's docstring. Thanks for provoking me to look at this, Stephen Turnbull.

;; In Elisp, a keyword is interned as any other symbol.

;; Keywords used to be initialized at read-time, which resulted in
;; (symbol-value (intern ":some-new-keyword")) signaling an error.
;; Now we handle keywords at the time when the symbol is interned, so
;; that (intern ":something) and (read ":something) will be
;; equivalent.  These tests check various operations on symbols that
;; are guaranteed to be freshly interned.

;; Interning a fresh keyword string should produce a regular
;; keyword.
