  13   The table below lists the general-purpose Emacs variables that
  14 automatically become buffer-local in each buffer.  Most become
  15 buffer-local only when set; a few of them are always local in every
  16 buffer.  Many Lisp packages define such variables for their internal
  17 use, but we don't try to list them all here.
  18
  19   Every buffer-specific minor mode defines a buffer-local variable
  20 named @samp{@var{modename}-mode}.  @xref{Minor Mode Conventions}.
  21 Minor mode variables will not be listed here.
