    This section describes the functions for explicitly producing echo
  area messages.  Many other Emacs features display messages there, too.
  
! @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{Formatting Strings}, for the details
  on the conversion specifications.  @code{message} returns the
  constructed string.

  In batch mode, @code{message} prints the message text on the standard
  error stream, followed by a newline.
  
! If @var{string}, or strings among the @var{arguments}, have @code{face}
! text properties, these affect the way the message is displayed.
  
  @c Emacs 19 feature
! If @var{string} is @code{nil}, @code{message} clears the echo area; if
! the echo area has been expanded automatically, this brings it back to
! its normal size.  If the minibuffer is active, this brings the
! minibuffer contents back onto the screen immediately.
