+@defmac with-local-quit forms@dots{}
+This macro executes @var{forms} in sequence, but allows quitting, at
+least locally, within @var{body} even if @code{inhibit-quit} was
+non-@code{nil} outside this construct. It returns the value of the
+last form in @var{forms}, unless exited by quitting, in which case
+it returns @code{nil}.
+
+If @code{inhibit-quit} is @code{nil} on entry to @code{with-local-quit},
+it only executes the @var{forms}, and setting @code{quit-flag} causes
+a normal quit. However, if @code{inhibit-quit} is non-@code{nil} so
+that ordinary quitting is delayed, a non-@code{nil} @code{quit-flag}
+triggers a special kind of local quit. This ends the execution of
+@var{forms} and exits the @code{with-local-quit} form with
+@code{quit-flag} still non-@code{nil}, so that another (ordinary) quit
+will happen as soon as that is allowed. If @code{quit-flag} is
+already non-@code{nil} at the beginning of @var{forms}, the local quit
+happens immediately and they don't execute at all.
+
+This macro is mainly useful in functions that can be called from
+timers, @code{pre-command-hook}, @code{post-command-hook} and other
+places where @code{inhibit-quit} is normally bound to @code{t}.
