To subscribers of the xforms list from Rob Fletcher <rpf1@york.ac.uk> :

Hi,

TC et al ...

Just had folk stumble over ... fl_show_choice()

The manual he say

fl_show_choice(const char *m, int n, const char *b1, const char *b2,
const char *b3, int def);

This however is the definition for:

fl_show_choices() <---- note the plural!!!

If you check forms.h, you will also find fl_show_choice()

The "Changes" note reflects the change from 0.81 (and 0.81 manual) but the
0.86 manual has yet another version as above, and no mention of the
pluralised version!

Rather confusing to newcomers, rather than us old "hacks" ..

Regards

Rob
