That's not quite right: it should say " ... documenting every customization variable *in the manual* was not the best way to go." *All* customization variables should be documented. You can get that documentation with C-h v <variable name> RET If there is no such documentation, that's a bug. You can also use "customize" to list such variables (or groups of related variables). The manual is a good way to start, but it does noe wander into the darker corners. Fortunately, emacs provides enough flash lights to illuminate them. Knowing about these is important: it makes your (emacs) life easier, more productive and more enjoyable. > So maybe this also applies for the particular case of > org-hide-emphasis-markers... > > Regards -- Nick
