  25 ;;; Commentary:
  26
  27 ;; This mode is intended for use with languages that adds a small
  28 ;; number of extra letters not available on the keyboard.
  29 ;;
  30 ;; Examples includes Scandinavian and German with an US keyboard.
  31 ;;
  32 ;; The idea is that certain keys are overloaded.  When you press it
  33 ;; once it will insert one string, and when you press it twice the
  34 ;; string will be replaced by another.  This can be used for mapping
  35 ;; keys on a US keyboard to generate characters according to the local
  36 ;; keyboard convention when pressed once, and according to US keyboard
  37 ;; convention when pressed twice.
  38 ;;
  39 ;; To use this mode, you must define the variable `double-map' and
  40 ;; then enable double mode with `M-x double-mode'.  Read the
  41 ;; documentation for both of them.
  42 ;;
  43 ;; The default mapping is for getting Danish/Norwegian keyboard layout
  44 ;; using ISO Latin 1 on a US keyboard.
  45 ;;
  46 ;; Important node: While I would like to hear comments, bug reports,
  47 ;; suggestions, please do @strong{not} expect me to put other mappings
  48 ;; than the default into this file.  There are billions and billions
  49 ;; of such mappings, and just supporting the most common would
  50 ;; increase the size of this nice small file manyfold.
