Pending Eli's response, I'll check this patch in.
Sorry, I missed that because you sent the patch as binary attachment.
The patch for the manual is okay, with one comment. I don't understand the last sentence in this hunk:
For C-like languages, a value is a string if it is a pointer to or an array of characters or ints. The string is assumed to be terminated -by a zero of the appropriate width. +by a zero of the appropriate width. However if the optional length +argument is given, the string will be converted beyond any embedded +nulls up to the length specified.
What does it mean ``converted beyond any embedded nulls''?
