It is allowed as a file variable. The setting is about when Emacs will ask back before setting a variable to a possibly malicious value when using Emacs as the application to view/edit externally provided files from unverified sources. And you can respond to that prompt by stating that a particular setting should always be allowed in future. > One could customize the variable globally to 10000 and the result > would be the same? Sure, but that is not an attack vector. If someone has access to customize, worrying about safety is already over. > BTW, I don't know either what happens if one puts 10000 there. The question is whether this should be enough of a worry to stop such settings to take effect automatically. I am not saying that it should, just that this is the metric for making this change. -- David Kastrup _______________________________________________ bug-auctex mailing list [email protected] https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-auctex
