28;;; Commentary:
29
30;; This minor mode adds some services to Emacs-Lisp editing mode.
31;;
32;; First, it knows about the header conventions for library packages.
33;; One entry point supports generating synopses from a library directory.
34;; Another can be used to check for missing headers in library files.
35;;
36;; Another entry point automatically addresses bug mail to a package's
37;; maintainer or author.
38
39;; This file can be loaded by your lisp-mode-hook. Have it (require 'lisp-mnt)
40
41;; This file is an example of the header conventions. Note the following
42;; features:
43;;
44;; * Header line --- makes it possible to extract a one-line summary of
45;; the package's uses automatically for use in library synopses, KWIC
46;; indexes and the like.
47;;
48;; Format is three semicolons, followed by the filename, followed by
49;; three dashes, followed by the summary. All fields space-separated.
50;;
51;; * Author line --- contains the name and net address of at least
52;; the principal author.
53;;
68756f1f 54;; If there are multiple authors, they should be listed on continuation
0fc37e7d
ER
55;; lines led by ;;<TAB>, like this:
56;;
57;; ;; Author: Ashwin Ram <Ram-Ashwin@cs.yale.edu>
58;; ;; Dave Sill <de5@ornl.gov>
59;; ;; David Lawrence <tale@pawl.rpi.edu>
60;; ;; Noah Friedman <friedman@ai.mit.edu>
61;; ;; Joe Wells <jbw@maverick.uswest.com>
62;; ;; Dave Brennan <brennan@hal.com>
63;; ;; Eric Raymond <esr@snark.thyrsus.com>
64;;
65;; This field may have some special values; notably "FSF", meaning
66;; "Free Software Foundation".
67;;
68;; * Maintainer line --- should be a single name/address as in the Author
69;; line, or an address only, or the string "FSF". If there is no maintainer
70;; line, the person(s) in the Author field are presumed to be it. The example
71;; in this file is mildly bogus because the maintainer line is redundant.
72;; The idea behind these two fields is to be able to write a lisp function
73;; that does "send mail to the author" without having to mine the name out by
74;; hand. Please be careful about surrounding the network address with <> if
75;; there's also a name in the field.
76;;
77;; * Created line --- optional, gives the original creation date of the
78;; file. For historical interest, basically.
79;;
80;; * Version line --- intended to give the reader a clue if they're looking
68756f1f
ER
81;; at a different version of the file than the one they're accustomed to. This
82;; may be an RCS or SCCS header.
0fc37e7d
ER
83;;
84;; * Adapted-By line --- this is for FSF's internal use. The person named
85;; in this field was the one responsible for installing and adapting the
86;; package for the distribution. (This file doesn't have one because the
87;; author *is* one of the maintainers.)
88;;
89;; * Keywords line --- used by the finder code (now under construction)
c0d79871 90;; for finding Emacs Lisp code related to a topic.
0fc37e7d 91;;
1894df21
NF
92;; * X-Bogus-Bureaucratic-Cruft line --- this is a joke and an example
93;; of a comment header. Headers starting with `X-' should never be used
94;; for any real purpose; this is the way to safely add random headers
95;; without invoking the wrath of any program.
0fc37e7d
ER
96;;
97;; * Commentary line --- enables lisp code to find the developer's and
98;; maintainers' explanations of the package internals.
99;;
100;; * Change log line --- optional, exists to terminate the commentary
101;; section and start a change-log part, if one exists.
102;;
c0d79871 103;; * Code line --- exists so Lisp can know where commentary and/or
0fc37e7d
ER
104;; change-log sections end.
105;;
106;; * Footer line --- marks end-of-file so it can be distinguished from
107;; an expanded formfeed or the results of truncation.
108
109;;; Change Log:
110
111;; Tue Jul 14 23:44:17 1992 ESR
112;; * Created.
