Symptoms:




In GNU Emacs 21.3.50.6 (i686-pc-linux-gnu, X toolkit, Xaw3d scroll bars)

In bibtex.el the declaration of bibtex-user-optional-fields as a
customizable user option variable contains the custamization type
`option'. It seems to me that this custamization type is not
documented anywhere. I can't find it in the appropriate part of the
elisp manual (nodes `Simple Types' or `Composite Types') nor can I
find it in the info file for the emacs widget library.

The particular thing I want to know is whether (how) one can specify
the default value `unselected' for the checkbox of an option.

Thanks,

Roland


PS: I know, I am the maintainer of bibtex.el... But the declaration
of bibtex-user-optional-fields is due to one of my predecessors.
