+ ;;; Commentary:
+ 
+ ;; This mode provides a hook which is, by default, attached to various
+ ;; putatively dangerous commands in a (probably futile) attempt to
+ ;; prevent lusers from shooting themselves in the feet.
+ 
+ ;;; Code:
+ 
+ ;; This function is called (by autoloading)
+ ;; to handle any disabled command.
+ ;; The command is found in this-command
+ ;; and the keys are returned by (this-command-keys).
