1;;; system.el --- System-specific configuration -*- lexical-binding: t; -*-

3;;; Commentary:
4
5;; When using Emacs on separate computers, some variables need different
6;; settings. This library contains functions and variables to work with
7;; different system configurations for Emacs.

23Each cell is of the form (PREDICATE . SYSTEM), where PREDICATE is
24a function of no arguments and SYSTEM is a string or symbol that
25will be passed to `system-settings-load'.
26
27This list need not be exhaustive; see `system-settings-load' for
28more details on what happens if this alist is exhausted."
