+## User toc manipulation
+
+If the user would want to enhance the generated toc, (s)he could use
+the following function markdown-toc-user-toc-structure-manipulation-fn:
+
+It expects as argument the toc-structure markdown-toc uses to generate
+the toc. The remaining code expects a similar structure.
+
+Example:
+
+``` lisp
+'((0 . \"some markdown page title\")
+  (0 . \"main title\")
+  (1 . \"Sources\")
+  (2 . \"Marmalade (recommended)\")
+  (2 . \"Melpa-stable\")
+  (2 . \"Melpa (~snapshot)\")
+  (1 . \"Install\")
+  (2 . \"Load org-trello\")
+  (2 . \"Alternative\")
+  (3 . \"Git\")
+  (3 . \"Tar\")
+  (0 . \"another title\")
+  (1 . \"with\")
+  (1 . \"some\")
+  (1 . \"heading\"))
+```
+
+So for example, as asked in #16, one could drop the first element:
+
+``` lisp
+(custom-set-variables '(markdown-toc-user-toc-structure-manipulation-fn 'cdr))
+```
+
+Or drop all h1 titles... or whatever:
+
+``` lisp
+(require 'dash)
+(custom-set-variables '(markdown-toc-user-toc-structure-manipulation-fn
+  (lambda (toc-structure)
+  (-filter (lambda (l) (let ((index (car l)))
+                    (<= 1 index)))
+           toc-structure)))
+```
