Subject: PATCH: Use parent links for customization items with no links
Date: Sun, 30 Nov 2003 15:13:57 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <rjd6bandui.fsf@sheridan.dina.kvl.dk> (raw)
On the Gnus developers mailing list, there were a discussion of what
to do with :link in the case where a single section in the info file
documents a number of options all belonging to the same custom group.
If you add a :link to each option, it will clutter display if you
customize the group. On the other hand, if you only add the :link to
the group, it will not appear when you customize the individual
options.
Here is a patch to cus-edit.el to handle that case. It will display
the links of the parent group, if the item (option/group/face) you are
customizing doesn't have any links of its own.
Ok to commit?

* cus-edit.el (custom-add-parent-links): Add documentation links
for parent, if the item has none of its own.
