Hi all,

use-package.texi contains this example[1]:

  @lisp
  @group
  ;; Completely hide visual-line-mode and change auto-fill-mode to " AF".
  (use-package emacs
    :delight
    (auto-fill-function " AF")
    (visual-line-mode))
  @end group
  @end lisp

The usage of (use-package emacs ...) isn't described anywhere in the
file, though.  There was a discussion about it here[2], but I think it
should be documented in the manual somehow.  I'm not familiar enough
with use-package to make a suggestion, sorry.

Best, Arash
