diff src/minibuf.c @ 4824:eaf67474339b

(Fminibuffer_complete_word): GCPRO1 `completion' during calls to Ftry_completion. (read_minibuf): Rewrite change of Sep 14. Save the return value on the history list provided in the form that the value is returned, iff the value is not equal to the front of the history list. (Fread_no_blanks_input): Change DEFUN to allow 2nd arg to be optional. The code was already written correctly.
