- The problem with the above filetype definition is that
- a continuation mark on the "CORE" line is missing.
-
- Put in the continuation and make sure that NO whitespace
- follows the mark.

- The problem with the above definition is that it is
- missing the "actions list". Change it to:
-
- NONREADABLE \
- * \
- !d&!r&!x \
- ${NOREAD_L} \
- ${NOREAD_S} \
- SomeAction
-
- Note that even if you don't have an action for this
- filetype, you need to put one in the definition.
