Reword per suggestion, but I kinda like the original wording. The context here is startup, e.g. shared libraries aren't read at this point. If you wish a different wording, can you provide one?

I like what it's in the patch. There's no reason why one couldn't have non-python auto-loaded scripts, and there's no reason at the moment for having a different option to control them. So I don't want "python" in the option name. Having it the Python section of the manual is fine for now since that's all we currently support. Ok to check in? 2010-12-10 Doug Evans <dje@google.com> Rename "maint set python auto-load" to "set auto-load-scripts". * NEWS: Mention it. * python/py-auto-load.c (auto_load_scripts): Renamed from gdbpy_auto_load. (load_auto_scripts_for_objfile): Update. (gdbpy_initialize_auto_load): Rename "maint set python auto-load" to "set auto-load-scripts". doc/ * gdb.texinfo (Startup): Document auto-loading of scripts during startup. (Auto-loading): Delete "maint set python auto-load on|off". Add "set auto-load-scripts on|off".
