--- Begin Message --- Subject: 29.0.60; [PATCH] Add more documentation about Eshell command invocation Date: Sun, 15 Jan 2023 18:51:25 -0800 The Eshell manual isn't as thorough as it could be about how users should invoke commands. While there's a reasonable amount of documentation about the details, it never directly describes how to run a simple command.

Attached is a patch to remedy this. I also corrected the documentation about how Eshell picks what command to run in command form; previously, it stated that ordinary Lisp functions had higher priority than external commands, which isn't actually the case (unless you set 'eshell-prefer-lisp-functions').

Since this is purely a documentation change, I'd like to merge this to the Emacs 29 branch.
