Ah, sorry about that - I forgot this. > I have also set the inputs and native inputs to the empty lists, > because as far as I can tell, the emacs mode does not depend on > anything outside of the emacs-build-system. OK, I fixed a typo in emacs-recutils synopsis and formatted Git messages. You could look for messages examples with a handy command ‘vc-print-log’ in Emacs which is binded to ‘C-x v l’ by default. Also I modified a description a little bit for better searching if you don't mind. Pushed as 535a69e9e5aae2f59470caf900ece56f83ee6e36 to master. Thanks, Oleg.
