allout.el: Summary - migrate to defining allout mode using define-minor-mode instead of defun. Significantly clean-up internal keymap provisions, refactoring a bit and removing a lot of accumulated cruft. allout-mode-map is now a keymap by virtue of being an defalias to allout-mode-map-value, which contains the actual keymap structure. (allout-mode): Use define-minor-mode rather than defun. Remove now-unnecessary minor-mode setup activities from the body. Specify :keymap as allout-mode-map so the minor-mode-map-alist entry will be '(allout-mode . allout-mode-map) - see allout-mode-map-value, below. Adjust docstring to track changes. (allout-minor-mode): Remove this defalias, now that we're using define-minor-mode. (allout-mode-map): Set value to be 'allout-mode-map. The actual keymap is allout-mode-map-value, via defalias. (allout-mode-map-value): The variable holding the actual mode keymap structure, by virtue of defalias from allout-mode-map. (allout-compose-and-institute-keymap): Renamed from allout-bind-keys, and including the binding-composition functionality of the former produce-allout-mode-map and allout-setup-mode-map. (allout-institute-keymap): Take over the "setup" part of the former allout-setup-mode-map. Reassign allout-mode-map-value value and update the defalias. (allout-command-prefix) (allout-prefixed-keybindings) (allout-unprefixed-keybindings): Use allout-compose-and-institute-keymap to process the bindings. (allout-unprefixed-keybindings): Remove extraneous '?' question marks. (allout-prefixed-keybindings): Elide binding to (prefixed) \C-h - user can customize if they want to use that binding. Bind allout-copy-topic-as-kill to (prefixed) \M-k. Bind allout-up-current-level to (prefixed) \C-u. (I think i mistakenly elided that, previously, instead of the one for \C-h.) (allout-hotspot-key-handler): Remove attempt to resolve the key through the literal key-string lookup on allout-keybindings-list. That probably hasn't worked for a Long Time, and removal of allout-keybindings-list further simplifies the keybindings situation. (allout-pre-command-business): Use allout-mode-map-value instead of allout-mode-map. (allout-preempt-trailing-ctrl-h): Remove. The user can customize the bindings if they want to use a keybinding having a trailing \C-h. No deprecation needed since this feature was never in a release. (allout-keybindings-list): Remove. It's not been useful for a while. (See allout-hotspot-key-handler changes, above.) (produce-allout-mode-map): Remove. Consolidate into allout-compose-and-institute-keymap. (allout-mode-map-adjustments): Remove. No longer necessary with removal of allout-preempt-trailing-ctrl-h. (allout-setup-mode-map): Remove. Consolidate into allout-compose-and-institute-keymap and allout-institute-keymap.
