The command you're looking for is [Set Asymmetric Patterns]. Something to

Hi,

Why in Coq 8.5(*) one should add parameters in the constructors of a
pattern match, and why they're forced to be dummies "_"? Is there a command
to put these automatically? Couldn't find it in the CHANGES.

Thanks,
Beta
