- I tried the autoinsert.el that came with our distribution
- [GNU Emacs 18.55.1 of Wed Mar 7 1990 on castle (berkeley-unix)]
- written by Charlie Martin, dated 1/7/1988 and wasn't too impressed.
-
- Oh, thank you for the criticism, I don't know how I could have lived
- without that.
-
- I added some stuff to make it a little friendlier and more general:
- ;;; Much hacked about by Kevin Davidson <dltest@castle.ed.ac.uk>
- ;;; 18th August 1992
- ;;; Whole buffer is marked. If auto-insertion is not wanted, ^W will remove
- ;;; it all.
- Interestingly, "undo" does the same thing with mine.
- ;;; Now replaces % escapes in inserted file:
- ....
- ;;; %% is a %
-
- Look into header.el.
-
- Has this already been done ? If not is anybody interested in trying it
- and offering buggestions before I post it ?
-
- Sure, send it along.
