Documentation

Check if in invisible region before inserting or deleting a character.

Valid values are:

nil Do not check, so just do invisible edits.
error Throw an error and do nothing.
show Make point visible, and do the requested edit.
show-and-error Make point visible, then throw an error and abort the edit.
smart Make point visible, and do insertion/deletion if it is
                 adjacent to visible text and the change feels predictable.
                 Never delete a previously invisible character or add in the
                 middle or right after an invisible region. Basically, this
                 allows insertion and backward-delete right before ellipses.
                 FIXME: maybe in this case we should not even show?

This variable only affects commands listed in org-fold-catch-invisible-edits-commands.
