+
+;;; Commentary:
+
+;; This file provides a simple way to define powerful templates, or
+;; macros, if you wish. It is mainly intended for, but not limited to,
+;; other programmers to be used for creating shortcuts for editing
+;; certain kind of documents. It was originally written to be used by
+;; a HTML editing mode written by Nelson Minar <nelson@reed.edu>, and
+;; his html-helper-mode.el is probably the best example of how to use
+;; this program.
+
+;; A template is defined as a list of items to be inserted in the
+;; current buffer at point. Some of the items can be simple strings,
+;; while other can control formatting or define special points of
+;; interest in the inserted text.
+
+;; If a template defines a "point of interest" that point is inserted
+;; in a buffer-local list of "points of interest" that the user can
+;; jump between with the commands `tempo-backward-mark' and
+;; `tempo-forward-mark'. If the template definer provides a prompt for
+;; the point, and the variable `tempo-interactive' is non-nil, the
+;; user will be prompted for a string to be inserted in the buffer,
+;; using the minibuffer.
+
+;; The template can also define one point to be replaced with the
+;; current region if the template command is called with a prefix (or
+;; a non-nil argument).
+
+;; More flexible templates can be created by including lisp symbols,
+;; which will be evaluated as variables, or lists, which will will be
+;; evaluated as lisp expressions.
+
+;; See the documentation for tempo-define-template for the different
+;; items that can be used to define a tempo template.
+
+;; One of the more powerful features of tempo templates are automatic
+;; completion. With every template can be assigned a special tag that
+;; should be recognized by `tempo-complete-tag' and expanded to the
+;; complete template. By default the tags are added to a global list
+;; of template tags, and are matched against the last word before
+;; point. But if you assign your tags to a specific list, you can also
+;; specify another method for matching text in the buffer against the
+;; tags. In the HTML mode, for instance, the tags are matched against
+;; the text between the last `<' and point.
+
+;; When defining a template named `foo', a symbol named
+;; `tempo-template-foo' will be created whose value as a variable will
+;; be the template definition, and its function value will be an
+;; interactive function that inserts the template at the point.
+
+;; Full documentation for tempo.el can be found on the World Wide Web
+;; at http://www.lysator.liu.se:7500/~davidk/tempo.html (not yet
+;; completed)

+This function creates a template variable `tempo-template-NAME' and an

+
+NAME is a string that contains the name of the template, ELEMENTS is a
+list of elements in the template, TAG is the tag used for completion,
+DOCUMENTATION is the documentation string for the insertion command
+created, and TAGLIST (a symbol) is the tag list that TAG (if provided)

+added to `tempo-tags'
+
+The elements in ELEMENTS can be of several types:
+
+ - A string. It is sent to the hooks in `tempo-insert-string-functions',
+   and the result is inserted.
+ - The symbol 'p. This position is saved in `tempo-marks'.
+ - The symbol 'r. If `tempo-insert' is called with ON-REGION non-nil

+ - (p . PROMPT) If `tempo-interactive' is non-nil, the user is
+   prompted in the minbuffer with PROMPT for a string to be inserted.
+   If `tempo-interactive is nil, it works like 'p.
+ - (r . PROMPT) like the previou, but if `tempo-interactive' is nil
+   and `tempo-insert' is called with ON-REGION non-nil, the current
+   region is placed here.
+ - '& If there is only whitespace between the line start and point,
+   nothing happens. Otherwise a newline is inserted.
+ - '% If there is only whitespace between point and end-of-line
+   nothing happens. Otherwise a newline is inserted.
+ - 'n inserts a newline.
+ - '> The line is indented using `indent-according-to-mode'. Note that
+   you often should place this item after the text you want on the

+ - 'n> inserts a newline and indents line.
