[PATCH] doc: clarify syntax for %C(auto,...) in pretty formats

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The change actually adds only 

	(e.g. `%C(auto,red)`)

but reflowing the paragraph blows it up a little.

-------- 8< --------
The manual correctly describes the syntax with `auto,` but the
trailing `,` is hard to spot in a terminal.  The HTML format does not
have this problem.  Adding an example helps both worlds.
