Maybe ,----[ C-h f add-to-list RET ] | add-to-list is a compiled Lisp function in `subr.el'. | | (add-to-list LIST-VAR ELEMENT &optional APPEND COMPARE-FN) | | Add ELEMENT to the value of LIST-VAR if it isn't there yet. | The test for presence of ELEMENT is done with `equal', | or with COMPARE-FN if that's non-nil. | If ELEMENT is added, it is added at the beginning of the list, | unless the optional argument APPEND is non-nil, in which case | ELEMENT is added at the end. | | The return value is the new value of LIST-VAR. | | If you want to use `add-to-list' on a variable that is not defined | until a certain package is loaded, you should put the call to `add-to-list' | into a hook function that will be run only after loading the package. | `eval-after-load' provides one way to do this. In some cases | other hooks, such as major mode hooks, can do the job. | | [back] `---- ? -- cheers, Thorsten
