Subject: Re: Documentation not clear for the Lisp function set-variable

Message-ID: <E1DmwkS-0005IQ-PK@fencepost.gnu.org> (raw)

    There is one problem with `set-variable'.  When called interactively
    it doesn't accept aliased user options.

It should accept aliases, even if they are obsolete.  Could you fix that?
(It would be useful to notify the user that the name he used is an alias.)
