(shell-command-default-error-buffer): Renamed from shell-command-on-region-default-error-buffer. (shell-command-on-region): Mention in echo area when there is some error output. Mention success or failure, too. Accumulate multiple error outputs going forward, with formfeed in between. Display the error buffer when we have put something in it. (shell-command): Add the ERROR-BUFFER argument feature.

;;; Commentary:

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

;;; Code:

(defvar generated-autoload-file "loaddefs.el"
   "*File \\[update-file-autoloads] puts autoloads into.
A `.el' file can set this in its local variables section to make its
autoloads go somewhere else.")

(defconst generate-autoload-cookie ";;;###autoload"
  "Magic comment indicating the following form should be autoloaded.
Used by \\[update-file-autoloads].  This string should be
meaningless to Lisp (e.g., a comment).

This string is used:

;;;###autoload
\(defun function-to-be-autoloaded () ...)

If this string appears alone on a line, the following form will be
read and an autoload made for it.  If there is further text on the line,
that text will be copied verbatim to `generated-autoload-file'.")

(defconst generate-autoload-section-header "\f\n;;;### "
  "String that marks the form at the start of a new file's autoload section.")

(defconst generate-autoload-section-trailer "\n;;;***\n"
