Subject: 25.0.50; document #: in Elisp manual
Date: Wed, 5 Nov 2014 08:43:50 -0800 (PST)
`#:' should be documented properly in the Elisp manual.  There are just
a few in-passing references to it, which do not explain it.

The Lisp reader should be documented well, from a user point of view,
with everything affecting it explained - preferably in one place.

That includes `#<', `#:', `#N=', `#N#', `#@COUNT', `#$', `#.', comments,
number syntax (including non-10 radix), \-escaped newlines and spaces,
hash tables.
