[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
In GNU Emacs 29.0.90 (build 1, x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version

3.24.37, cairo version 1.16.0) of 2023-04-18 built on ring

 

The "Getting Started" topic of the use-package info contains the

following unclear language in paragraph 2:

 

"     (require 'use-package)

 

   The above makes the 'use-macro' for in the rest of your init file.

In this manual, we call each call to 'use-macro' a "declaration", to

highlight the declarative nature of its semantic."
