 You can also decide to only activate beginend for some of its
 supported major modes (e.g., through ~beginend-dired-mode~).

+Vanilla Emacs ~init.el~:

+** Cleaning up the modeline
+
+By default, beginend adds the ~be~ lighter to the modeline.
+
+You can use [[https://github.com/myrjola/diminish.el][diminish.el]] or [[https://savannah.nongnu.org/projects/delight][delight.el]] to turn this off for every minor
+mode beginend defines by looping over the ~beginend-modes~ variable.
+Note that you will /also/ need to "turn off the lights" for
+~beginend-global-mode~, which is not part of this list.
+
+If you usually diminish all minor modes, I recommend using [[https://melpa.org/#/minions][minions.el]].
+
+In the following snippets, you can replace ~delight~ with ~diminish~ for
+similar results.
