Subject: 12.2.4; Incomplete documentation for TeX-view-program-list
Date: Thu, 19 Nov 2020 19:52:44 +0000

I wanted to add mupdf TeX-view-program-list, but the documentation
(appearing in customize-variable for example) was missing one crucial
piece of information: how I should actually format the command. I
eventually figured out it needs to be "mupdf %o". Either %o should be
documented right there, or there should be a link to a place where
it and other substitutions are documented. (I'm sure they are somewhere;
I just have no idea where to start looking.)
