;;; Commentary:

;; Minor modes are useful and common.  This package makes defining a
;; minor mode easy, by focusing on the writing of the minor mode
;; functionalities themselves.  Moreover, this package enforces a
;; conventional naming of user interface primitives, making things
;; natural for the minor-mode end-users.

;; For each mode, easy-mmode defines the following:
;; <mode>      : The minor mode predicate. A buffer-local variable.
;; <mode>-map  : The keymap possibly associated to <mode>.
;; <mode>-hook : The hook run at the end of the toggle function.
;;       see `define-minor-mode' documentation
;;
;; eval
;;  (pp (macroexpand '(define-minor-mode <your-mode> <doc>)))
;; to check the result before using it.

;; The order in which minor modes are installed is important.  Keymap
;; lookup proceeds down minor-mode-map-alist, and the order there
;; tends to be the reverse of the order in which the modes were
;; installed.  Perhaps there should be a feature to let you specify
;; orderings.

;; Additionally to `define-minor-mode', the package provides convenient
;; ways to define keymaps, and other helper functions for major and minor modes.

(defmacro define-minor-mode (mode doc &optional init-value lighter keymap &rest body)
  "Define a new minor mode MODE.
This function defines the associated control variable MODE, keymap MODE-map,
toggle command MODE, and hook MODE-hook.

DOC is the documentation for the mode toggle command.
Optional INIT-VALUE is the initial value of the mode's variable.
Optional LIGHTER is displayed in the modeline when the mode is on.
Optional KEYMAP is the default (defvar) keymap bound to the mode keymap.
  If it is a list, it is passed to `easy-mmode-define-keymap'
  in order to build a valid keymap.  It's generally better to use
  a separate MODE-map variable than to use this argument.
The above three arguments can be skipped if keyword arguments are
used (see below).

BODY contains code that will be executed each time the mode is (dis)activated.
  It will be executed after any toggling but before running the hooks.
  BODY can start with a list of CL-style keys specifying additional arguments.
  The following keyword arguments are supported:
:group   Followed by the group name to use for any generated `defcustom'.
:global  If non-nil specifies that the minor mode is not meant to be
         buffer-local.  By default, the variable is made buffer-local.
:init-value  Same as the INIT-VALUE argument.
:lighter  Same as the LIGHTER argument."
