So firsthead would be a boolean export option whereas firstfood would be a variable to set its content?

The more I think about it the more I agree that you should be able to set any value of foldmarks. The only problem I see is that for other boolean options one can use `t' whereas for foldmarks one would need to use `true' (because `t' is a valid configuration value for foldmarks). But as long as that's documented I see no problem. I will post a patch, once Alan applies my previous patches. Cheers, Viktor
