I was talking about user-level features and the User's Manual, not the
Lisp Manual.
The appendix that is suggested does not belong in the Emacs Manual.
There already is a section on Windows usage in the Emacs Manual. But
it is not the mission of the Emacs Manual to "describe all those
w32-SOMETHING functions and variables", any more than it is its mission
to describe all the functions and variables that are NOT specifically
for Windows.
In nearly every aspect of Emacs, _completeness is not the goal_.
Would people please stop making suggestions that we aim to do this or
that in _complete_ manner?
