I meant an info node menu item, not the menu bar at the top of the window. When I press the Help button at the top of the customization buffer it takes me to the Customization sub-node "Easy Customization". Thats where the `Specific Customization' is. > apropos-variable is found in Find Options by Name under the Help menu. I've always used 'customize-apropos', as I assumed it was more appropriate for finding customizable options, faces, and groups. It can be found in the Options menu under `Customizing Emacs/Settings Matching Regexp...'. -- Peter Whaite
