File: elisp,  Node: Setting Hooks

 -- Function: add-hook hook function &optional append local
     This function is the handy way to add function FUNCTION to hook
     variable HOOK.

 -- Function: remove-hook hook function &optional local
     This function removes FUNCTION from the hook variable HOOK.
