[Orgmode] [PATCH] Clean up the description of org-archive-location


From: Bernt Hansen
Subject: [Orgmode] [PATCH] Clean up the description of org-archive-location
Date: Wed, 19 Nov 2008 12:22:38 -0500
User-agent: Gnus/5.11 (Gnus v5.11) Emacs/22.2 (gnu/linux)

This removes the ambiguous description that might lead org users
to try to set this variable without a '::' separator.  Without
the separated C-c C-x C-S fails with

        Invalid 'org-archive-location'
---
Here's my attempt at cleaning up the documentation of this variable.

This patch is available at git://git.norang.ca/org-mode in the branch
'fix-org-archive-location-docs'
