-The two variables above are temporarily bound to @code{nil} during the
-time that any of these functions is running. This means that if one of
-these functions changes the buffer, that change won't run these
-functions. If you do want a hook function to make changes that run
-these functions, make it bind these variables back to their usual
-values.
-
-One inconvenient result of this protective feature is that you cannot
-have a function in @code{after-change-functions} or
address@hidden which changes the value of that variable.
-But that's not a real limitation. If you want those functions to change
-the list of functions to run, simply add one fixed function to the hook,
-and code that function to look in another variable for other functions
-to call. Here is an example:
-
address@hidden
-(setq my-own-after-change-functions nil)
-(defun indirect-after-change-function (beg end len)
- (let ((list my-own-after-change-functions))
- (while list
- (funcall (car list) beg end len)
- (setq list (cdr list)))))

This variable is a normal hook that is run whenever a buffer is changed
that was previously in the unmodified state.

certain special text properties (@pxref{Special Properties}) and overlay
properties (@pxref{Overlay Properties}).

+Also, this variable is bound to address@hidden while running those
+same hook variables, so that by default modifying the buffer from
+a modification hook does not cause other modification hooks to be run.
+If you do want modification hooks to be run in a particular piece of
+code that is itself run from a modification hook, then rebind locally
address@hidden to @code{nil}.
