Basically it's just there for `outline-promote` and `outline-demote`. > Do we really need to have both outline-heading-alist and texinfo-section-list, Of course: `texinfo-section-list` is the variable that defines for `texinfo.el` the sectioning commands that are in use. It can be set by the user to adapt to their own Texinfo needs. `outline-heading-alist` is used as the way for `texinfo.el` to tell `outline.el` which heading promotes/demotes to which. Stefan
