26;; This code helps GNU Emacs maintainers keep the autoload.el file up to
27;; date. It interprets magic cookies of the form ";;;###autoload" in
28;; lisp source files in various useful ways. To learn more, read the
29;; source; if you're going to use this, you'd better be able to.

79;;; ;;; Note: defconst and defvar should NOT be marked in this way.
80;;; ;;; We don't want to produce defconsts and defvars that
81;;; ;;; make-docfile can grok, because then it would grok them twice,
82;;; ;;; once in foo.el (where they are given with ;;;###autoload) and
83;;; ;;; once in loaddefs.el.
84;;;
85;;; Counter-note: Yes, they should be marked in this way.
86;;; make-docfile only processes those files that are loaded into the
87;;; dumped Emacs, and those files should never have anything
88;;; autoloaded here. The above-feared problem only occurs with files
89;;; which have autoloaded entries *and* are processed by make-docfile;
90;;; there should be no such files.
