Hi Livin,
I have made the change to the manual much shorter, but moved the rest of this into the docstring of the variable.
Thanks!

Scott, Juri,
thank you for your replies.
'org-list-demote-modify-bullet' is exactly what I was missing.
JohnW, BerntH, Carsten,
AFAICT, the manual does not mention it?
Maybe you could suggest a place in the manual where you would have liked to find this information? Maybe even a patch?
Section "2.7 Plain lists".
That was where I went looking for this information.
Perhaps between
a. the description of 'org-empty-line-terminates-plain-lists', and
b. "The following commands act on items when the cursor is in the first line of an item (the line with the bullet or number)"
I can't submit a patch,
but this is what I might have liked to see (the documentation-addition that I might have submitted):
begin
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If you find that using a different bullet for a sub-list (than that used for the current list-level) improves readability, customize the variable 'org-list-demote-modify-bullet'. For example, this lisp in your '.emacs'
(setq org-list-demote-modify-bullet
(quote (
("+" . "-") ; sub-list uses '-' if cu
("-" . "+")
("*" . "+"))))
would result in such a 2-level list (which uses only '+'):
**** Take 5!
+ Movies
+ Silence of the Lambs
+ My Cousin Vinny
+ Books
+ The Hunt for Red October
+ The Road to Omaha
instead looking like this (using '-' for sub-list)
**** Take 5!
+ Movies
- Silence of the Lambs
- My Cousin Vinny
+ Books
- The Hunt for Red October
- The Road to Omaha
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
end
Thanks.
