* locals.texi (Standard Buffer-Local Variables): Don't include mode variables for minor modes. Fix xrefs for buffer-display-count, buffer-display-table, buffer-offer-save, buffer-saved-size, cache-long-line-scans, enable-multibyte-characters, fill-column, header-line-format, left-fringe-width, left-margin, and right-fringe-width. * hooks.texi (Standard Hooks): All hooks should conform to the standard naming convention now. Fix xref for `echo-area-clear-hook'. * display.texi (Usual Display): Note that indicate-empty-lines and tab-width are buffer-local. * files.texi (Saving Buffers): Add xref to `Killing Buffers'. * modes.texi (Mode Help): Note that major-mode is buffer-local. * nonascii.texi (Encoding and I/O): Note that buffer-file-coding-system is buffer-local. * positions.texi (List Motion): Note that defun-prompt-regexp is buffer-local. * text.texi (Auto Filling): Note that auto-fill-function is buffer-local. (Undo): Note that buffer-undo-list is buffer-local. * windows.texi (Buffers and Windows): Document buffer-display-count.
