-
-;; ######## Compatibility ########################################
-;;
-;; Works with Emacs-20.3, 20.6, 20.7, 21.2, 21.4, 22.1 and 23.1
-;; Does not work with Emacs-19.31 nor XEmacs-20.4 and 21.4.
-
-;; ######## Quick start ########################################
-;;
-;; Add to your ~/.emacs
-;;
-;; (require 'key-chord)
-;; (key-chord-mode 1)
-;;
-;; and some chords, for example
-;;
-;; (key-chord-define-global "hj" 'undo)
-;; (key-chord-define-global ",." "<>\C-b")
-
-;; ######## Terminology ########################################
-;;
-;; In this package, a "key chord" is two keys pressed simultaneously,
-;; or a single key quickly pressed twice.
-;;
-;; (Sometimes pressing SHIFT and/or META plus another key is call a chord,
-;; but not here. However SHIFT plus two normal keys can be a "key chord".)
-
-;; ######## Description ########################################
-;;
-;; Key chord mode acts like a global minor mode controlled by the function
-;; `key-chord-mode'.
-;;
-;; Key chord definitions are stored in ordinary key-maps.
-;; The function `key-chord-define-global' defines a chord in the global
-;; key-map and `key-chord-define' defines a chord in a specified key-map,
-;; for example for a specific mode.
-;;
-;; A TWO-key chord is two distinct keys pressed simultaneously (within
-;; one tenth of a second, or so).
-;;
-;; Examples:
-;;
-;; (key-chord-define-global ",." "<>\C-b")
-;; (key-chord-define-global "hj" 'undo)
-;; (key-chord-define-global [?h ?j] 'undo) ; the same
-;; (key-chord-define-global "jk" 'dabbrev-expand)
-;; (key-chord-define-global "cv" 'reindent-then-newline-and-indent)
-;; (key-chord-define-global "4r" "$")
-;;
-;; Comma and dot pressed together insert a pair of angle brackets.
-;; `h' and `j' pressed together invoke the undo command.
-;; `j' and `k' pressed together invoke the dabbrev-expand command.
-;; 'c' and 'v' pressed together insert a newline.
-;; `4' and `r' pressed together insert a dollar sign.
-;;
-;; A ONE-key chord is a single key quickly pressed twice (within one third
-;; of a second or so).
-;;
-;; Examples:
-;;
-;; (key-chord-define-global "''" "`'\C-b")
-;; (key-chord-define-global ",," 'indent-for-comment)
-;; (key-chord-define-global "qq" "the ")
-;; (key-chord-define-global "QQ" "The ")
-;;
-;; Tick (') pressed twice inserts a back-tick and a tick (`').
-;; Comma (,) pressed twice indents for and/or inserts a comment.
-;; `q' pressed twice inserts the word "the ".
-;;
-;; Examples: Mode specific chords
-;;
-;; (key-chord-define c++-mode-map ";;" "\C-e;")
-;; (key-chord-define c++-mode-map "{}" "{\n\n}\C-p\t")
-;;
-;; The command `key-chord-describe' lists currently defined key chords.
-;; The standard command `describe-bindings' (C-h b) will also show key chords.
-;;
-;; The standard command `describe-key' (C-h k) will accept a key chord and
-;; show its definition. (Isn't that amazing. There is no explicit code to
-;; carry out this functionality.)
-
-;; ######## Tips ########################################
-;;
-;; Don't chord key combinations that exists in the languages you typically
-;; write. Otherwise, if you are typing fast, two key intended to be separate
-;; letters might instead trig a chord.
-;; E.g. "uu" would be a good chord in spanish but not in finnish, and
-;; "hj" would be a good chord in english but not in swedish.
-;;
-;; Don't rely solely on /usr/dict/words to find unusual combination.
-;; For example "cv" or "fg" can be quite common in certain kinds of
-;; programming. Grep your own texts to verify that a combination is unusual.
-;; And don't forget to check both permutations: "fg" and "gf".
-;;
-;; Choose two keys that are close to each other on the keyboard, so they
-;; can be quickly typed without effort. Chords involving two hands (as
-;; opposed to two fingers on one hand) are harder to type (quickly).
-;; The idea is that key chords are to replace function keys for functions
-;; that are frequently performed while the hands are in writing position.
-;;
-;; Key chords might not work well over a slow network.
-
-;; ######## Limitations ########################################
-;;
-;; When recording keyboard macros, the time between keyboard inputs are not
-;; recorded. Thus, the key-chord-input-method cannot know for sure if two keys
-;; in a macro was a chord or not. The current solution remembers the first key
-;; of the chords typed during macro recording, and keys that match those (and
-;; are defined as chords) are considered key-chords during macro execution.
-;; This knowledge is not saved with `name-last-kbd-macro', so they may
-;; execute wrong if they contain pair of keys that match defined chords.
-;;
-;; Emacs will not call input-method-function for keys that have non numeric
-;; codes or whos code is outside the range 32..126. Thus you cannot define
-;; key chords involving function keys, control keys, or even your non-english
-;; letters (on national keyboards) that otherwise are well positioned for
-;; chording on your keyboard.
-;; (I think chording left and right arrow keys would be useful, but cannot do.
-;; I consider this a bug in Emacs. Input methods could happily return
-;; unmodified *any* key they don't know about.)
-;;
-;; Key chords longer that 2 keys are not supported. It could be done, but I
-;; don't think it is worth the trubbel since most keyboards will not reliably
-;; send all key codes when 3 or more keys are pressed simultaneously.
-;; It might also be a bit trickier to maintain performance.
-;;
-;; Key chord mode uses input-method-function. And so do internationalisation
-;; packages (mule, quail, etc). Do not expect them to work well together.
-;; The last one that gets the input-method-function rules.
-
-;; ######## Implementation ########################################
-;;
-;; Key chords piggy back in ordinary key maps, so they can be defined
-;; per mode without having to add hooks to all modes.
-;;
-;; Key chord key codes are vectors beginning with the atom `key-chord'.
-;; A two key chord, e.g. "hj", will add two entries in the key-map.
-;; E.g. [key-chord ?h ?j] and [key-chord ?j ?h].
-;;
-;; When key-chord-mode is enabled input-method-function is set to
-;; key-chord-input-method.
-
-;; ######## To do ########################################
-;;
-;; * Find a way to save key-chord info in keyboard macros.
-;;
-;; * Save previous value of input-method-function? And call it?
-;;
-;; * input-method-function is reset in *info* buffers! What to do?
-;;
-;; * How to enter interactively command OR string in key-chord-define-global?
-;;
-;; * Customize public vars (defcustom).
