Subject: 29.1; Eglot missing or un-findable advertised feature
Date: Sun, 17 Dec 2023 11:38:40 -0800

The info page for Eglot says:

3.1 Eglot features:

   • On-the-fly diagnostic annotations with server-suggested fixes, via
     the Flymake package (*note (flymake)Top::).  

But I can find no evidence of the support for server-suggested fixes
either in flymake or in eglot itself.  I am working with an LSP server
that offers fix-its but can't find any way to apply them.

Either what's meant by this should be clarified, leading to discoverable
instructions for exploiting the feature, or the text should be removed.

Well, yes.  That's why I wrote "IMO" which abbreviates
"in my opinion".  I don't have control over your _opinion_
it's just, like, your opinion.

I hope you are out of trouble now :-)

No need to justify yourself so much, but I find this odd.
For example, a simple text search within the Eglot manual for
"action" yields this as the second result in the end of the
very section you were reading.

   • In addition to enabling and enhancing other features and packages,
     Eglot also provides a number of user commands based on the
     capabilities of language servers.  Examples include renaming
     symbols with ‘eglot-rename’ and asking to automatically correct
     problems with ‘eglot-code-actions’.  *Note Eglot Commands::.

And "code actions" and "quickfix" and "rename" are easily found
in the manual's index, also just a C-s (isearch) away.

It's very good that you are using Eglot's manual, but IMO
glancing through a high-level overview of features is not
sufficient to learn how to use it.  You need at least skim the
remainder of the manual. Packages in Emacs are controlled via
commands, and so the "Eglot Commands" section is very relevant
to use Eglot.  That section is amply referenced through the
manual.

Maybe I'll add something to the existing "For the  impatient"
section.  Until then, I consider this bug report solved, so
I'm closing it.

João
