Hello,

RMS recently pointed that `pcase' docstring describes map, seq, and
radix-tree-leaf constructs.

However, they are not documented in the 11.4.1 The =E2=80=98pcase=E2=80=99 =
macro section
of Elisp manual.

AFAIU, eieio, map, seq, cl-struct, and a number of other constructs
mentioned in the docstring are automatically added there by
`pcase-defmacro'.

I see no need to document specialized pcase constructs like
`eshell-index-range', but eieie, map, seq, and cl-struct appears to be
matching common Elisp data structures. I think that they should be
documented in the manual.

AFAIK these "belong" to `map.el`, `seq.el`, etc... so that's where they
should be documented.  The documentation for `pcase` could of course
include corresponding cross-references.

Do you mean "6.1 Sequences" section of the manual? Or the source code?

Indeed. If I could figure out a way to prevent that from being added to

I meant "where ever it's documented", so yes that sounds about right :-)

No, not that: we already have docstrings there, I think.

This might be tricky in practice:

1. eieio is more or less clear - it is a separate manual
2. seq.el is documented in 6.1 section, which may be a problem - the
   very concept of pattern matching is only introduced in 11.4.1 (pcase)
   section. So, it might be confusing for the readers to see information
   about pattern matching so early in the manual.
3. map.el does not have any documentation in manual. It may mean that
   (map ..) pattern should not be documented. Or it may mean that we
   need to add a map.el section to the manual.
4. 11.4.1 The =E2=80=98pcase=E2=80=99 macro section already documents =E2=
=80=98(cl-type TYPE)=E2=80=99,
   but not (cl-struct TYPE &rest FIELDS). It will be awkward to document
   cl-struct pattern in CL manual, while leaving cl-type in the 11.4.1
   section of the Elisp manual.

I think that it might be something akin `rx-let', but binds the pcase
macros temporarily. Looking into `pcase-defun', I do not see anything
difficult in implementing an equivalent feature `pcase-let-defun'.

That makes sense to me.

However, what I'm actually asking for about these pcase constructs is
not any change in Emacs, simply for someone to explain to me what they
do so I can give cond* similar festures.

I don't think anything but eieio and its documentation needs to

If there is a general need for such a construct in cond*, it can
be added later.

Can someone please describe for me the construct used in pcase
for matching sequences -- tell me how to use it and what it does?
Then I could implement that facility in cond*.

I would like to implement matching of cl-structs in cond*.  But I have
never used cl-structs and I don't know how they are used.

Can someone tell me about the constructs for constructing a structure
of a specified type with specified field values?  Please tell me how
to use it and what it does.  Then I could implement that for cond*.
