166The remaining arguments should have the form
167
168 [KEYWORD VALUE]...
169
170The following keywords are meaningful:
171
172:type VALUE should be a widget type for editing the symbols value.
173:options VALUE should be a list of valid members of the widget type.
174:group VALUE should be a customization group.
175 Add SYMBOL to that group.
3dc5f18e 176:link LINK-DATA
00644b82
EZ
177 Include an external link after the documentation string for this
178 item. This is a sentence containing an active field which
179 references some other documentation.
180
181 There are three alternatives you can use for LINK-DATA:
182
3dc5f18e 183 (custom-manual INFO-NODE)
00644b82 184 Link to an Info node; INFO-NODE is a string which specifies
3dc5f18e 185 the node name, as in \"(emacs)Top\". The link appears as
00644b82
EZ
186 `[manual]' in the customization buffer.
187
3dc5f18e 188 (info-link INFO-NODE)
00644b82
EZ
189 Like `custom-manual' except that the link appears in the
190 customization buffer with the Info node name.
191
3dc5f18e 192 (url-link URL)
00644b82
EZ
193 Link to a web page; URL is a string which specifies the URL.
194 The link appears in the customization buffer as URL.
195
196 You can specify the text to use in the customization buffer by
197 adding `:tag NAME' after the first element of the LINK-DATA; for
3dc5f18e 198 example, (info-link :tag \"foo\" \"(emacs)Top\") makes a link to the
00644b82
EZ
199 Emacs manual which appears in the buffer as `foo'.
200
201 An item can have more than one external link; however, most items
202 have none at all.

203:initialize
204 VALUE should be a function used to initialize the
205 variable. It takes two arguments, the symbol and value
206 given in the `defcustom' call. The default is
a01639a3 207 `custom-initialize-reset'.
55535639
PJ
208:set VALUE should be a function to set the value of the symbol.
209 It takes two arguments, the symbol to set and the value to
210 give it. The default choice of function is `custom-set-default'.
211:get VALUE should be a function to extract the value of symbol.
212 The function takes one argument, a symbol, and should return
213 the current value for that symbol. The default choice of function
214 is `custom-default-value'.
215:require
216 VALUE should be a feature symbol. If you save a value
217 for this option, then when your `.emacs' file loads the value,
218 it does (require VALUE) first.
219:version
220 VALUE should be a string specifying that the variable was
221 first introduced, or its default value was changed, in Emacs
222 version VERSION.
00644b82
EZ
223:tag LABEL
224 Use LABEL, a string, instead of the item's name, to label the item
225 a in customization menus and buffers.
226:load FILE
227 Load file FILE (a string) before displaying this customization
228 item. Loading is done with `load-library', and only if the file is
229 not already loaded.
a2b38e51
GM
230:set-after VARIABLE
231 Specifies that SYMBOL should be set after VARIABLE when
232 both have been customized.

278
279DISPLAY can either be the symbol t, which will match all frames, or an
280alist of the form \((REQ ITEM...)...). For the DISPLAY to match a
281FRAME, the REQ property of the frame must match one of the ITEM. The
282following REQ are defined:
283
284`type' (the value of `window-system')
285 Under X, in addition to the values `window-system' can take,
286 `motif', `lucid' and `x-toolkit' are allowed, and match when
287 the Motif toolkit, Lucid toolkit, or any X toolkit is in use.
288
289`class' (the frame's color support)
290 Should be one of `color', `grayscale', or `mono'.
291
292`background' (what color is used for the background text)
293 Should be one of `light' or `dark'.
