,----[ C-h v org-startup-options RET ]
| org-startup-options is a variable defined in `org.el'.
|
| Documentation:
| Variable associated with STARTUP options for org-mode.
| Each element is a list of three items: The startup options as written
| in the #+STARTUP line, the corresponding variable, and the value to
| set this variable to if the option is found.  An optional forth element PUSH
| means to push this value onto the list in the variable.
