The example in the Emacs 24.4 manual, section 49.1.1, says that a Customize window should always contain five buttons: "Set for current session", "Save for future sessions", "Undo edits", "Reset to saved", "Erase customizations", and "Exit".

Mine doesn't.  Where those should be it has only "Revert...", "Apply", and "Apply and Save".

What have I overlooked?

Emacs 24.4.1 (x86_64-w64-mingw32), but also 24.3 earlier.

My best guesses:

"Set for current sessions" is "Apply"
"Save for future sessions" is "Apply and Save"
"Undo edits" is probably the letter q
"Reset to saved" is "Revert..."
"Erase customizations" is in the individual context menu for each item
Exit is press q


I think this is a case of documentation not catching up with the real released
product.

Like my Samsung tablet & my Timex watch!  Nice to know that free
software offers that feature too.

Seems to be true.  I'll see what I can do about the documentation.
