 BODY:      forms to execute just before running the
            hooks for the new mode.  Do not use `interactive' here.
 
+BODY can start with a bunch of keyword arguments.  The following keyword
+  arguments are currently understood:
+:group GROUP
+	Declare the customization group that corresponds to this mode.
+:syntax-table TABLE
+	Use TABLE instead of the default.
+	A nil value means to simply use the same syntax-table as the parent.
+:abbrev-table TABLE
+	Use TABLE instead of the default.
+	A nil value means to simply use the same abbrev-table as the parent.

 Here is how you could define LaTeX-Thesis mode as a variant of LaTeX mode:
