Customization
Major Hyperbole user options may be set from the Customize submenu below the Hyperbole menubar menu, as seen here.

Alternatively, the minibuffer-based menu, Cust/ may be used.
Generally, you should not need to change anything other than these options. However, if you like to customize your environment extensively, there are many additional Hyperbole customization options that may be changed with the Emacs customization interface, see Easy Customization Interface in the GNU Emacs Manual. When you save any changes within this interface, the changes are saved permanently to your personal Emacs initialization file and are available in future Emacs sessions.
Use Cust/All-Options {C-h h c a} to display an expandable tree of customizable Hyperbole options. Hyperbole’s customizations are further grouped into several sub-categories, one for the Koutliner, one for the HyRolo, etc. You can select either an entire category or a specific option and they will appear in another window for editing. Simply follow the instructions on screen and then press the “Apply and Save” button to make any changes permanent.
If you know the name of the option you want to edit, you can edit it at any time without going through the tree of options. Use {M-x customize-variable RET} and then type the name of the variable and press RET to edit it.
The following sections discuss the customization options most likely to be of interest to users.
