Documentation:
The regexp used by `find-variable' to search for a variable definition.
Note it must contain a `%s' at the place where `format'
should insert the variable name. The default value
avoids `defun', `defmacro', `defalias', `defadvice', `defgroup', `defface'.

Please send improvements and fixes to the maintainer.

You can customize this variable.

This variable was introduced, or its default value was changed, in version 21.1 of Emacs.
