 In `flycheck-pos-tip-mode' show Flycheck's error messages in a
-GUI tooltip.  This does not work on TTY frames.  You can provide
-your own function to show and hide the popup via
-`flycheck-pos-tip-show-function' and
+GUI tooltip.  Falls back to `flycheck-pos-tip-tty-show-function'
+on TTY frames.  You can provide your own functions to show and
+hide the popup via `flycheck-pos-tip-show-function' and
 `flycheck-pos-tip-hide-function' respectively.  For instance you
 may use the popular popup.el library (see URL
 `https://github.com/auto-complete/popup-el')."
