Emacs Manual Typo
Location: Emacs Manual -> Files -> Image Mode

Issue Summary and fix: Below paragraph I believe the u should be the
command 'image-mode-unmark-file'. 'image-mode-mark-file' was accidently
listed for both commands m and u.

I tried hitting m more than once to see if it also works as a toggle but it
does not appear to unmark, it only marks.

Thank you. Have a nice day.

Original text from manual:
   When looking through images, it’s sometimes convenient to be able to
mark the files for later processing (for instance, if you want to select
a group of images to copy somewhere else).  The ‘m’
(‘image-mode-mark-file’) command will mark the current file in any Dired
buffer(s) that display the current file’s directory.  If no such buffer
is open, the directory is opened in a new buffer.  To unmark files, use
the ‘u’ (‘image-mode-mark-file’) command.  Finally, if you just want to
copy the current buffers file name to the kill ring, you can use the ‘w’
(‘image-mode-copy-file-name-as-kill’) command.

Thanks, the typo was already in Emacs 30, so I've now fixed that on
the emacs-30 release branch, and I'm therefore closing this bug.
