Subject: [RFA] Improve on-line help for thread_apply_command and thread_apply_all_command.
Date: Fri, 20 Apr 2018 21:19:00 -0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180420211900.10064-1-philippe.waroquiers@skynet.be> (raw)
Add a Usage: line for thread_apply_command, in particular to mention
the thread ID list.
In thread_apply_command and thread_apply_all_command help, use
uppercase for arg names, as this style seems to be more standard.
2018-04-20 Philippe Waroquiers <philippe.waroquiers@skynet.be>
* thread.c (_initialize_thread): improve on-line help for
thread_apply_command and thread_apply_all_command.
