diff lisp/progmodes/grep.el @ 103276:a53bb8ffd3ae

* progmodes/grep.el (grep-compute-defaults): Simplify how settings are looked up. (grep-apply-setting): New function. (grep-highlight-matches, grep-command, grep-template) (grep-use-null-device, grep-find-command, grep-find-template): Clarify role of grep-compute-defaults in docstrings. Use grep-apply-setting to apply changes (Bug#3343).
