[gnu.emacs.bug] Error in documentation of variable "command-switch-alist" in 18.53

worley@compass.com (Dale Worley) (01/19/90)

The documentation reads:

    command-switch-alist's value is nil

    Documentation:
    Alist of command-line switches.
    Elements look like (SWITCH-STRING . HANDLER-FUNCTION).
    HANDLER-FUNCTION receives switch name as sole arg;
    remaining command-line args are in the variable `args'.

However, the variable referred to at the end should be
"command-line-args-left", as can be seen from the code of function
command-line-1, lines 196-201 in file startup.el.
