Capitalise Emacs and Lisp. (type-break-good-break-interval, type-break-demo-boring-stats) (type-break-terse-messages, type-break-file-name): New defcustoms. (type-break-post-command-hook) (type-break-warning-countdown-string): Quote variable names in doc. (type-break-interval-start, type-break-auto-save-file-name): New defvars. (type-break-mode): Document type-break-good-break-interval and the "session" file. Schedule break according to the session file. Kill session file buffer on exit. Organise for save-some-buffers to always save the session file. (type-break-mode-line-message-mode, type-break-query-mode): Uppercase arguments. (type-break-file-time, type-break-file-keystroke-count, timep) (type-break-choose-file, type-break-get-previous-time) (type-break-get-previous-count): New defuns. (type-break): Avoid break querying after a completed break in the case where the query was initiated during user invocation of the break. Optional terse messages. Use type-break-good-break-interval if type-break-good-rest-interval is nil. File the break time. (type-break-schedule): New optional args for overriding the use of the current time. (type-break-cancel-time-warning-schedule): Avoid leftover warnings after a break. (type-break-check): File the keystroke count. (type-break-do-query): Prevent a second query when the break is interrupted. Optional terse message. (type-break-keystroke-reset): Record the start of a typing interval. (type-break-demo-boring): Optional terse messages. Display word per minute and keystroke counts according to type-break-demo-boring-stats.

@quotation
  Most of the GNU Emacs text editor is written in the programming
language called Emacs Lisp.  You can write new code in Emacs Lisp and
install it as an extension to the editor.  However, Emacs Lisp is more
than a mere ``extension language''; it is a full computer programming
language in its own right.  You can use it as you would any other
programming language.

  Because Emacs Lisp is designed for use in an editor, it has special
features for scanning and parsing text as well as features for handling
files, buffers, displays, subprocesses, and so on.  Emacs Lisp is
closely integrated with the editing facilities; thus, editing commands
are functions that can also conveniently be called from Lisp programs,
and parameters for customization are ordinary Lisp variables.

  This manual describes Emacs Lisp.  Generally speaking, the earlier
chapters describe features of Emacs Lisp that have counterparts in
many programming languages, and later chapters describe features that
are peculiar to Emacs Lisp or relate specifically to editing.
