Re: cursor custom group: bad labels and help text

[Richard M. Stallman]

    M-x customize-group cursor

I agree that these tags are bad.

    4. "Blink Cursor Alist" - The help doesn't explain what OFF-STATE is -
       is it a function?  What does it do? How does it work? Not clear.

I will put in the following.  It could use more info, but I don't know
any more answers.

    doc: /* Alist specifying how to blink the cursor off.
Each element has the form (ON-STATE . OFF-STATE).  Whenever the
`cursor-type' frame-parameter or variable equals ON-STATE,
comparing using `equal', Emacs uses OFF-STATE to specify
how to blink it off.  ON-STATE and OFF-STATE are values for
the `cursor-type' frame parameter.

If a frame's ON-STATE has no entry in this list,
the frame's other specifications determine how to blink the cursor off.  */);
