The statement: "Non-nil means visit a file under its truename" is a bit misleading. A non-nil value does not mean that a file gets visited (...) at all. It means only that IF a file gets visited then it gets visited under its truename. 2. The doc is hard to understand unless one knows what visiting a file "under its truename" means. The doc does a good job of saying what the truename of a file is. What is missing is to say what "visiting under" a given name means. Presumably what is meant is that the truename is the name of the visited file, i.e., it is used as the value of `buffer-file-name'. If so, say that. I would suggest something like this: Non-nil means visiting a file uses its truename as the visited-file name. That is, the buffer visiting the file has the truename as the value of `buffer-file-name'.
