- You might want to use the minor mode version of outline-mode instead
- of patching every other major mode. The minor mode is identical to
- the major mode, except that you can use it together with another major
- mode, and you can choose the prefix key yourself.
-
- The algorithm for for determining the outline level is also more
- general, but still compatible with the one used in the major mode.
