I realise that now that - to quote my first post - 'set[ting] the dock to appear when the pointer was held against a screen edge' is precisely what the 'pressure reveal' option is meant to do. However, on my system (and, now, plank 0.11.4.34), that option does not work. Worse: it if does not work, then one loses the ability to see one's plank and, thus, to disable the faulty 'pressure reveal'. Worse yet, there is no config file. So how to ever see my dock again? I discovered `plank --settings`. Others won't.

So, there's a whole cluster of problems. To wit:

1) an explanation of 'pressure reveal' would be good;
2) if that feature actually worked it would be good;
3) being able to recover more easily from the feature not working would be good.
