@ccmode{} is a GNU Emacs mode for editing files containing C, C++,
has several handy commands and some minor modes to make the editing
easier. It does not provide tools to look up and navigate between

+@item File Local Variable setting
+A @dfn{file local variable setting} is a setting which applies to an

A @dfn{file style} is a rarely used variant of the ``style'' mechanism
