Subject: 26.2; list-timers doesn't use the fractional part for displaying
 repeat

[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
When doing an M-x list-timer I see entries like 5.00 in the repeat column. 
It's apparently the repeat time in minutes.

I also see a timer of mine which repeats every 30 seconds and it is displayed
with a repeat value of 0.00

If the repeat is displayed as a floating point value then shouldn't it say 0.5 for a
timer with 30 seconds repeat?

This was fixed earlier this year, so I'm closing this bug report.

commit 74489bdcb663722b1747f6a3f81f1f111c751f04
Author:     Eli Zaretskii <eliz <at> gnu.org>

    Improve the UI of 'list-timers'
    
    * lisp/emacs-lisp/timer-list.el (list-timers): Display both "Next"
    and "Repeat" in units of seconds, for consistency.
    (timer-list-mode): Add help-echo to column headers.
