Value

nil

Documentation

Customizations of language environment parameters.

Value is an alist with elements like those of language-info-alist. These are used to set values in language-info-alist which replace the defaults. A typical use is replacing the default input method for the environment. Use C-h L (describe-language-environment) to find the environment's settings.

This option is intended for use at startup. Removing items doesn't remove them from the language info until you next restart Emacs.

Setting this variable directly does not take effect. See set-language-info-alist for use in programs.

This variable was added, or its default value changed, in Emacs 23.1.
