doc string of `interactive' for `N'


From: Drew Adams
Subject: doc string of `interactive' for `N'
Date: Mon, 25 Dec 2006 11:34:48 -0800

The doc string says this for code `N' in `interactive:

 "Raw prefix arg, or if none, do like code `n'."

However, the Elisp manual says this:

 "The numeric prefix argument; but if there is no prefix argument,
  read a number as with `n'."

I imagine that the latter (numeric arg) is correct, not the former
(raw arg). BTW, this bug is very old: it appears in Emacs 20 also.
