The main reason is though for the completeness of the documentation -- "man" should be an indexed function name just like "manual-entry".

The harm is in having two or more index entries that begin with the same text and point to the same page. That's not useful, and its only effect is bloating the index, including in the printed version of the manual (which increases the page count). So we try to avoid that. Thanks.

I was expecting there was an exact matching of "man", but there wasn't.

These are two different types of indices: one is a function, the other is a concept -- they locate in different indices. If a user wants to look for the man function, it can't be found in the function index. How about this: replace all "manual-entry" with "man" in the section, and remove the "manual-entry" index as well. In this way, the total number of indices won't increase. It also fixes the inconsistency -- both "M-x manual-entry" and "M-x man" are used without pointing out they are the same thing. --=-=-= Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1 iQIcBAEBAgAGBQJYOd/QAAoJECZsfTOCL4R4Vr0QAI3vIvV2nNmShYo/Z1V1cGx8 3E4pcHvUr7vzgT5Hq7/meVTDT7j8jwhIQuCUIk+3Th37pktlyOhWnaL/H1H6S+/P /JHVrTNiEkpQBUH+BWTRCDAFiYg++7yjmWDnWEksMKVXoKz5rzY6t28LmsZ496M1 ujAUvWyw1b4QamYFj/N3S3fXyf17MOcdsJ2/RMMGg0AuCoNV/t13X13POO027qGM tu9Ck0rdxkLYB5UQgBG0qPgA/dj5QWrG7IKYwUTdUvv/KFdWY6Qak4XySGJRmf6X bcyRev4qR2d0n2yzDcaWD42JLvfiQuaYSOCO+ASzLff+uQQGq/V8ADDfpT2iGbsl udJVkWhHD64fVT9ia6d+iyU438ixURE4LzhTUIzirttQzgBMYdOxMClXx+mWsVhM oYUWeCJ+obuNiXR1ahu207zkIC7Y9v3dLKs9CzpZxwHB8DPVL2X4HHtzBMgK7B4q h0WAQxZCW41JM8EK57Vb+FWlGY9LKxq4S2OIx4D8pjuxGXylAVP96Xw1Nl3QrP7z 9pBMA5AqP1OBW+2uTtGX4B7ZsdaPlcyfG8XnUsYpUctBd+A86/rpZ0v0b/vew9Z0 tjv/XqH+SP9VDaat17QtPjR7Y2TvCxhGDoYLY8FRmbCXt+IXbtda1h6JCCi4rwW4 GVMqOaaE9IMwxE3TOoLr =1TE7 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-=-=-- From unknown Tue Aug 19 12:49:39 2025 MIME-Version: 1.0 X-Mailer: MIME-tools 5.505 (Entity 5.505) X-Loop: help-debbugs@gnu.org From: help-debbugs@gnu.org (GNU bug Tracking System) To: Hong Xu Subject: bug#25033: closed (Re: bug#25033: [PATCH] Add a missing index for `man'.)
