developer help has wrong behavior

Peter Szammer

Hi,
some things are strange in the "developer Help" ... see attached File.
1. Problem ... can't use eg "vl-list-loaded-list" in search path ???
... result is ... Invalid character "-" !
2. Problem ... if i zoom in Firefox with Ctrl + Mousewheel the right side
... the left side stays unzoomed
3. Problem ... the border between left and right ist not moveable!

Any ideas ?

Thanks in advance ...
Peter

Dear Peter,

the Lisp function is
(vl-list-loaded-lisp)

likely, you copied + pasted the function name from a manual ? Sometimes, depending on the source documentation (HRML, PDF, CHM), the characters are different than they appear :-)
Most often I encoutnered this with apostrophes ", i.e. on Mac they use a different character there ...

But for sure, that Lisp function works, independent on support pathes, reporting the loaded Lisp files including their pathes.

many greetings
Torsten

@Torsten Moses:

...
the Lisp function is
(vl-list-loaded-lisp)
...

Exact ... but no combination of chars (min 3) find the help of this funcition.
if you split the functionname to parts ...
vl- ---> invalid character "-"
loaded ---> no matches found
*loaded* ---> invalid character "*"
... just ...
lisp ---> has one result: Differences between platforms and levels

But all other parts of a function names ore the whole has none.
Simple: try it, how to get help for a function in the search menu.

thanks in advance ...

Try searching in the Index. You can enter a search string with "-" there.

... There is also the Lisp Developer Support Package.
