* mh-alias.el (mh-alias-grab-from-field): Remove leading * from
docstring. Does this mean something in a defun?
* mh-customize.el (bw-new-face-to-old, bw-old-face-to-new): Checkdoc
fix.
* mh-e.el (mh-inc-folder): Rename maildrop-name argument to file so it
reads better in docstring and manual. Sync docstring with manual.
* mh-init.el (mh-defface-compat): Remove trailing space (checkdoc).
* mh-alias.el (mh-alias-apropos): Sync docstring with manual.

The list includes each symbol's message (on the @code{error-message} property of the symbol) and a cross reference to a description of how the error can occur. Each error symbol has an @code{error-conditions} property that is a list of symbols. Normally this list includes the error symbol itself and the symbol @code{error}. Occasionally it includes additional symbols, which are intermediate classifications, narrower than @code{error} but broader than a single error symbol. For example, all the errors in accessing files have the condition @code{file-error}. If we do not say here that a certain error symbol has additional error conditions, that means it has none. As a special exception, the error symbol @code{quit} does not have the condition @code{error}, because quitting is not considered an error. @xref{Errors}, for an explanation of how errors are generated and handled. @table @code @item @var{symbol} @var{string}; @var{reference}. @item error @code{"error"}@* @xref{Errors}. @item quit @code{"Quit"}@* @xref{Quitting}. @item args-out-of-range @code{"Args out of range"}@* This happens when trying to access an element beyond the range of a sequence or buffer.@* @xref{Sequences Arrays Vectors}, @xref{Text}. @item arith-error @code{"Arithmetic error"}@* @xref{Arithmetic Operations}. @item beginning-of-buffer @code{"Beginning of buffer"}@* @xref{Character Motion}. @item buffer-read-only @code{"Buffer is read-only"}@* @xref{Read Only Buffers}. @item coding-system-error @code{"Invalid coding system"}@* @xref{Lisp and Coding Systems}. @item cyclic-function-indirection @code{"Symbol's chain of function indirections\@* contains a loop"}@* @xref{Function Indirection}. @item cyclic-variable-indirection @code{"Symbol's chain of variable indirections\@* contains a loop"}@* @xref{Variable Aliases}. @item end-of-buffer @code{"End of buffer"}@* @xref{Character Motion}. @item end-of-file @code{"End of file during parsing"}@* Note that this is not a subcategory of @code{file-error}, because it pertains to the Lisp reader, not to file I/O.@* @xref{Input Functions}. @item file-already-exists This is a subcategory of @code{file-error}.@* @xref{Writing to Files}. @item file-date-error This is a subcategory of @code{file-error}.
