+ 
+ ;;; Commentary:
+ 
+ ;; GNU Emacs is already, in a sense, object oriented -- each object
+ ;; (buffer) belongs to a class (major mode), and that class defines
+ ;; the relationship between messages (input events) and methods
+ ;; (commands) by means of a keymap.
+ ;;
+ ;; The only thing missing is a good scheme of inheritance.  It is
+ ;; possible to simulate a single level of inheritance with generous
+ ;; use of hooks and a bit of work -- sgml-mode, for example, also runs
+ ;; the hooks for text-mode, and keymaps can inherit from other keymaps
+ ;; -- but generally, each major mode ends up reinventing the wheel.
+ ;; Ideally, someone should redesign all of Emacs's major modes to
+ ;; follow a more conventional object-oriented system: when defining a
+ ;; new major mode, the user should need only to name the existing mode
+ ;; it is most similar to, then list the (few) differences.
+ ;;
+ ;; In the mean time, this package offers most of the advantages of
+ ;; full inheritance with the existing major modes.  The macro
+ ;; `define-derived-mode' allows the user to make a variant of an existing
+ ;; major mode, with its own keymap.  The new mode will inherit the key
+ ;; bindings of its parent, and will, in fact, run its parent first
+ ;; every time it is called.  For example, the commands
+ ;;
+ ;;  (define-derived-mode hypertext-mode text-mode "Hypertext"
+ ;;    "Major mode for hypertext.\n\n\\{hypertext-mode-map}"
+ ;;    (setq case-fold-search nil))
+ ;;
+ ;;  (define-key hypertext-mode-map [down-mouse-3] 'do-hyper-link)
+ ;;
+ ;; will create a function `hypertext-mode' with its own (sparse)
+ ;; keymap `hypertext-mode-map.'  The command M-x hypertext-mode will
+ ;; perform the following actions:
+ ;;
+ ;; - run the command (text-mode) to get its default setup
+ ;; - replace the current keymap with 'hypertext-mode-map,' which will
+ ;;   inherit from 'text-mode-map'.
+ ;; - replace the current syntax table with
+ ;;   'hypertext-mode-syntax-table', which will borrow its defaults
+ ;;   from the current text-mode-syntax-table.
+ ;; - replace the current abbrev table with
+ ;;   'hypertext-mode-abbrev-table', which will borrow its defaults
+ ;;   from the current text-mode-abbrev table
+ ;; - change the mode line to read "Hypertext"
+ ;; - assign the value 'hypertext-mode' to the 'major-mode' variable
+ ;; - run the body of commands provided in the macro -- in this case,
+ ;;   set the local variable `case-fold-search' to nil.
+ ;;
+ ;; The advantages of this system are threefold.  First, text mode is
+ ;; untouched -- if you had added the new keystroke to `text-mode-map,'
+ ;; possibly using hooks, you would have added it to all text buffers
+ ;; -- here, it appears only in hypertext buffers, where it makes
+ ;; sense.  Second, it is possible to build even further, and make
+ ;; a derived mode from a derived mode.  The commands
+ ;;
+ ;;   (define-derived-mode html-mode hypertext-mode "HTML")
+ ;;   [various key definitions]
+ ;;
+ ;; will add a new major mode for HTML with very little fuss.
+ ;;
+ ;; Note also the function `derived-mode-p' which can tell if the current
+ ;; mode derives from another.  In a hypertext-mode, buffer, for example,
+ ;; (derived-mode-p 'text-mode) would return non-nil.  This should always
+ ;; be used in place of (eq major-mode 'text-mode).

body)
+   "Create a new mode as a variant of an existing mode.
+ 
+ The arguments to this command are as follow:
+ 
+ CHILD:     the name of the command for the derived mode.
+ PARENT:    the name of the command for the parent mode (e.g. `text-mode')
+            or nil if there is no parent.
+ NAME:      a string which will appear in the status line (e.g. \"Hypertext\")
+ DOCSTRING: an optional documentation string--if you do not supply one,
+            the function will attempt to invent something useful.
+ BODY:      forms to execute just before running the
+            hooks for the new mode.  Do not use `interactive' here.
+ 
+ BODY can start with a bunch of keyword arguments.  The following keyword
+   arguments are currently understood:
+ :group GROUP
+       Declare the customization group that corresponds to this mode.
+ :syntax-table TABLE
+       Use TABLE instead of the default.
+       A nil value means to simply use the same syntax-table as the parent.
+ :abbrev-table TABLE
+       Use TABLE instead of the default.
+       A nil value means to simply use the same abbrev-table as the parent.
+ 
+ Here is how you could define LaTeX-Thesis mode as a variant of LaTeX mode:
+ 
+   (define-derived-mode LaTeX-thesis-mode LaTeX-mode \"LaTeX-Thesis\")
+ 
+ You could then make new key bindings for `LaTeX-thesis-mode-map'
+ without changing regular LaTeX mode.  In this example, BODY is empty,
+ and DOCSTRING is generated by default.
+ 
+ On a more complicated level, the following command uses `sgml-mode' as
+ the parent, and then sets the variable `case-fold-search' to nil:
+ 
+   (define-derived-mode article-mode sgml-mode \"Article\"
+     \"Major mode for editing technical articles.\"
+     (setq case-fold-search nil))
+ 
+ Note that if the documentation string had been left out, it would have
+ been generated automatically, with a reference to the keymap.
+

+ `derived-mode-hook-name'."
