;; Variables which should trigger redisplay of the current buffer.
;; Variables whose change of value should trigger redisplay of the
;; current buffer.
;; To test whether a given variable needs to be added to this list,
;; write a simple interactive function that changes the variable's
;; value and bind that function to a simple key, like F5. If typing
;; F5 then produces the correct effect, the variable doesn't need
;; to be in this list; otherwise, it does.
