bug#12555: 24.2; doc fix for completing-read


From: Ikumi Keita
Subject: bug#12555: 24.2; doc fix for completing-read
Date: Wed, 03 Oct 2012 00:35:38 +0900

This bug report will be sent to the Bug-GNU-Emacs mailing list
and the GNU bug tracker at debbugs.gnu.org.  Please check that
the From: line contains a valid email address.  After a delay of up
to one day, you should receive an acknowledgement at that address.

Please write in English if possible, as the Emacs maintainers
usually do not have translators for other languages.

Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug, and
the precise symptoms of the bug.  If you can, give a recipe
starting from `emacs -Q':

C-h f completing-read RET shows the following message.

     (snip)

     If INITIAL-INPUT is non-nil, insert it in the minibuffer initially,
     (snip)
     default value DEF instead.  The user can yank the default value into
     the minibuffer easily using M-x next-history-element.

I suppose "M-n" is better for the last part than "M-x
next-history-element".  Here is a working fix.
