(pc-selection-mode-hook) (pc-select-saved-settings-alist, pc-select-map) (pc-select-saved-global-map, pc-select-key-bindings-alist) (pc-select-default-key-bindings, pc-select-extra-key-bindings) (pc-select-meta-moves-sexps-key-bindings) (pc-select-tty-key-bindings, pc-select-old-M-delete-binding): New variables. (pc-select-define-keys, pc-select-restore-keys): New functions. (pc-select-add-to-alist, pc-select-save-and-set-var) (pc-select-save-and-set-mode, pc-select-restore-var) (pc-select-restore-mode): New macros. (pc-selection-mode): Completely rewrote the body of the function; the main goal was to make pc-selection-mode "turn-off"-able, like other minor modes. Use define-minore-mode instead of just a defun. Store the key bindings into four alists: pc-select-default-key-bindings, pc-select-extra-key-bindings, pc-select-meta-moves-sexps-key-bindings, and pc-select-tty-key-bindings; then have the pc-select-define-keys function walk those alists instead of calling define-key repeatedly. When the mode is turned on, set the keybindings in global-map and remember the old keybindings; when the mode is turned off, restore the previously-saved keybindings. (pc-selection-mode defcustom): Reflect the fact that the mode is now "turn-off"-able.
