@defun message string &rest arguments
This function displays a message in the echo area. The
argument @var{string} is similar to a C language @code{printf} control
-string. See @code{format} in @ref{String Conversion}, for the details

on the conversion specifications. @code{message} returns the
constructed string.
@defun add-to-invisibility-spec element
This function adds the element @var{element} to
-@code{buffer-invisibility-spec} (if it is not already present in that
-list). If @code{buffer-invisibility-spec} was @code{t}, it changes to
-a list, @code{(t)}, so that text whose @code{invisible} property
-is @code{t} remains invisible.

If the property value is not @code{t}, it is a height spec. A height
-spec stands for a numeric height value; this heigh spec specifies the
+spec stands for a numeric height value; this height spec specifies the
actual line height, @var{line-height}. There are several ways to
write a height spec; here's how each of them translates into a numeric
height:
is @var{ratio} times the height of face @var{face}. @var{ratio} can
be any type of number, or @code{nil} which means a ratio of 1.
If @var{face} is @code{t}, it refers to the current face.

If the height spec is a cons of the format shown, the numeric height
is @var{ratio} times the height of the contents of the line.

@var{line-height} has no effect.
