Hello Emacs,

There is a problem with sentence (2) in paragraph (2) traced to
eshell.info, eshell.texi.

Can OpenAI's GPT2 improve that sentence in terms of aesthetic? [1]

# ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

-- quote from *info* (eshell) Invocation

   The command can be either an Elisp function or an external command.
Eshell looks first for an *note alias: Aliases. with the same name as
the command, then a *note built-in command: Built-ins. or a function
with the same name; if there is no match, it then tries to execute it as
an external command.

Looks fine here:

    Eshell looks first for an alias (*note Aliases::) with the same name as
    the command, then a built-in (*note Built-ins::) or a function with the
    same name; if there is no match, it then tries to execute it as an
    external command.

The info reader prints the following:

   Eshell looks first for an see alias. with the same name as
   the command, then a see built-in command. or a function
   with the same name; if there is no match, it then tries to execute it as
   an external command.

You seem to have a stale Info file.  This problem was fixed 10 days ago, and your Texinfo source seem to already include the fix.

OIC, apologies for the noise.

The source files were fetched within 24 hours.
The running Emacs devel distribution is the last point release by the installer.
That is months plus old.

Thank you.
