Subject: 29.0.50; error on display-bindings when invoked from a tty
Date: Wed, 03 Nov 2021 03:00:03 +0000

Hello,
When emacs -Q is ran in a tty(C-M-F2 on gnu/linux) and invokes
describe-bindings, an error occurs. the debug information is:

Debugger entered--Lisp error: (wrong-type-argument listp -1)
  outline--valid-emoji-p("▶️")
  outline--make-button(open)
  outline--make-button-overlay(open)
  outline--insert-open-button()
  outline-minor-mode-highlight-buffer()
  outline-minor-mode(1)
  describe-bindings()
  funcall-interactively(describe-bindings)
  call-interactively(describe-bindings nil nil)
  command-execute(describe-bindings)

i built emacs on commit f5a266700 (Rewrites of Elisp manual including
tab-bar and tab-line changes) although it that sha could be different as
it looks like there was a history change in emacs source.
The origin/master branch is at f2b8f29920 (Merge from origin/emacs-28)

Thanks! the above patch does work in a tty.

Is it possible to always use that triange thingy (which is used in a
tty) instead of the emoji in describe-bindings? i much prefer those
compared to emojis ;)

Thanks, I've now installed it on the master branch.

Yes, customize the option outline-minor-mode-buttons.

And with that, I'm closing this bug report.
