Please describe the sexps that are associated with standard errors.
Currently, only the error messages are described. But users can
sometimes see an error message that refers only to the sexp for
the error.
Example:
Error in post-command-hook (foo-post-cmd-hook): (args-out-of-range 9 9)
I don't see anywhere in the manual where a user could find out what
`(args-out-of-range 9 9)' means - in particular, what the two
occurrences of `9' signify.
Node `Standard Errors' says only this:
‘args-out-of-range’
The message is ‘Args out of range’. This happens when trying to
access an element beyond the range of a sequence, buffer, or other
container-like object. *Note Sequences Arrays Vectors::, and *Note
Text::.
Looking at the manual coverage of sequence etc. functions, you find
information such as this:
(elt [1 2 3 4] -1)
error→ Args out of range: [1 2 3 4], -1
But that doesn't help for understanding `(args-out-of-range 9 9)'.
