Subject: 28.1: Function-name error in documentation of c-mode indentation
Date: Sun, 2 Oct 2022 23:08:56 +0000 (UTC)

In the Emacs info manual, (emacs) C Indent, there is the
sentence:

   Reindent the current line, and/or in some cases insert a tab
   character (‘c-indent-command’).

 However, when an Emacs buffer is in c-mode, C-h <TAB> reports:

    TAB (translated from <tab>) runs the command c-indent-line-or-region

 So, the sentence in the Emacs info manual needs to have
 ‘c-indent-command’ changed to ‘c-indent-line-or-region’.

(End of report.)
