   9 The following is a list of hook variables which let you provide
  10 functions to be called from within Emacs on suitable occasions.
  11
  12 Most of these variables have names ending with @samp{-hook} are
  13 @dfn{normal hooks}, that are run with @code{run-hooks}.  The value of
  14 such a hook is a list of functions.  The recommended way to put a new
  15 function on such a hook is to call @code{add-hook}.  @xref{Hooks}, for
  16 more information about using hooks.
  17
  18 The variables whose names end in @samp{-function} have single functions
  19 as their values.  Usually there is a specific reason why the variable is
  20 not a normal hook, such as, the need to pass an argument to the
  21 function.  (In older Emacs versions, some of these variables had
  22 names ending in @samp{-hook} even though they were not normal hooks.)
  23
  24 The variables whose names end in @samp{-hooks} have lists of functions
  25 as their values, but these functions are called in a special way (they
  26 are passed arguments, or else their values are used).
  27
  28 @c !!! need  xref  to where each hook is documented or else document it
  29 @c by specifying what is expected, and when it is called relative to
  30 @c mode initialization.)
