+;;; autoinsert.el
+
+;;;  Abstract:
+;;;
+;;;  The following defines an association list for files to be
+;;;  automatically inserted when a new file is created, and a function
+;;;  which automatically inserts these files; the idea is to insert
+;;;  default files much as the mode is automatically set using
+;;;  auto-mode-alist.
+;;;
+;;;  The auto-insert-alist consists of dotted pairs of
+;;;  ( REGEXP . FILENAME ) where REGEXP is a regular expression, and
+;;;  FILENAME is the file name of a file which is to be inserted into
+;;;  all new files matching the regular expression with which it is
+;;;  paired.
+;;;
+;;;  To use: 
+;;;     load autoinsert.el
+;;;     setq auto-insert-directory to an appropriate value, which
+;;;       must end in "/"
