Subject: bug#1662: 23.0.60; Interactive not using minibuffer prompt face
Date: Mon, 22 Dec 2008 06:43:24 +0900

[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

The minibuffer prompt displayed by functions that use (interactive) is
usually
highlighted with the face `minibuffer-prompt'. However, interactive specs
"c",
"k" and "K" don't do this.

To reproduce:

  emacs -Q
  M-z

Running this function shows the difference more clearly:

  (defun example-prompt (&rest args)
    (interactive "sXXXX: \ncXXXX: \nkXXXX: \nKXXXX: ")
    (ignore args))
