Subject: 26.1.91; Scan error while requesting help with C-h v
Date: Mon, 18 Feb 2019 21:20:41 -0300

If I define

```
(let ((targets '("~/notes/gtd.org"
                 "~/notes/notes.org"
                 "~/notes/journal.org")))
  (setq org-refile-targets `((nil :maxlevel . 1)
                             ("~/notes/anki.org" :level . 0)
                             (,targets :maxlevel . 1)
                             (,targets :tag . "PROJECT"))))
```

and then request help using C-h v org-refile targets, I get


```
org-refile-targets is a variable defined in ‘org.el’.
Its value is
```

with error

```
forward-sexp: Scan error: "Containing expression ends prematurely"
```

If I replace ,targets for the literal list, then everything works fine
again.

Looks like a regression introduced in 26.1.

I've tried these steps on current master:

0. emacs -Q
1. Paste and evaluate this in *scratch*:
   (let ((targets '("~/notes/gtd.org"
                    "~/notes/notes.org"
                    "~/notes/journal.org")))
     (setq org-refile-targets `((nil :maxlevel . 1)
                                ("~/notes/anki.org" :level . 0)
                                (,targets :maxlevel . 1)
                                (,targets :tag . "PROJECT"))))
2. C-h v org-refie-targets RET

But I don't get any error.  So has this been fixed, or are you still
seeing this?

If I don't hear back from you within a couple of weeks, I'll just
close this bug as unreproducible.

Best regards,
Stefan Kangas

No further updates within 5 weeks, so I'm now closing this bug.

If you are still seeing this, please reply back and we can reopen the
