Subject: bug#13785: [patch] Trivial doc fix for regexp in elisp manual
Date: Fri, 22 Feb 2013 21:30:02 +0800

There is a minor bug in searching.texi (some constructs like "\(?:" are
not two-character sequences), so I made the following patch:

    For the most part, @samp{\} followed by any character matches only
  that character.  However, there are several exceptions: certain
! two-character sequences starting with @samp{\} that have special
! meanings.  (The character after the @samp{\} in such a sequence is
! always ordinary when used on its own.)  Here is a table of the special
! @samp{\} constructs.
  
  @table @samp
  @item \|
