Documentation

Whether Help commands can perform autoloading.

If non-nil, whenever C-h f (describe-function) is called for an autoloaded function whose docstring contains any key substitution construct (see substitute-command-keys), the library is loaded, so that the documentation can show the right key bindings.

This variable was added, or its default value changed, in Emacs 24.3.
