MH is the Rand Mail Handler. Other implementations include nmh and GNU mailutils." :link '(custom-manual "(mh-e)Top") :group 'mail) (defgroup mh-e '((mh custom-group)) ; Sort of an alias for 'mh group "Emacs interface to the MH mail system. MH is the Rand Mail Handler. Other implementations include nmh and GNU mailutils." :link '(custom-manual "(mh-e)Top")) The mh-e group only exists to point a user in the right direction if the user happens to explicitly run "M-x customize-group mh-e RET" which is a reasonable expectation given the name of the package ;-). As such, I do not want this group to appear in any group. Is there a way around this? I also forget why we named the main group "mh" and not "mh-e". I'm thinking of simply dropping the second group and just having a single "mh-e" group which is a reasonable expectation given the name of the package ;-). If no one can remember the good reason why we did this or can think of a good reason why we do this, I'll make it so. -- Bill Wohler http://www.newt.com/wohler/ GnuPG ID:610BD9AD Maintainer of comp.mail.mh FAQ and MH-E.
