+;;; 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,<mode>-on-hook,<mode>-off-hook and <mode>-mode:
+;;       see `easy-mmode-define-minor-mode' documentation
+;;
+;; eval
+;;  (pp (macroexpand '(easy-mmode-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.
