The variables undo-limit, undo-strong-limit and undo-outer-limit are
in basic.texi because that's where undo is documented, but they are
anything but basic. I think they are important enough to be mentioned
in the manual. I'd like to move their documentation to a different
place in the manual, but I am not sure where.
Can anyone suggest a good place?
I think they're in the right place. Move them to a subnode of `Undo',
perhaps. Options affecting a feature are usually mentioned along with the
feature.
Otherwise, if you want Basics to just be a Getting Started section, then
cover just a tiny bit on undo in Basics and have the complete doc of undo
elsewhere. In that case, do likewise for all of Basics: treat it as a
Getting Started section in all respects.
In any case, wherever undo is documented completely is where these options
should be documented.
