\f
;;; Summary

;; The current page commands are:

;;     forward-page         C-x ]
;;     backward-page        C-x [
;;     narrow-to-page       C-x p
;;     count-lines-page     C-x l
;;     mark-page            C-x C-p  (change this to C-x C-p C-m)
;;     sort-pages           not bound
;;     what-page            not bound

;; The new page handling commands all use `C-x C-p' as a prefix.  This
;; means that the key binding for `mark-page' must be changed.
;; Otherwise, no other changes are made to the current commands or
;; their bindings.

;; New page handling commands:

;;     next-page                        C-x C-p C-n
;;     previous-page                    C-x C-p C-p
;;     search-pages                     C-x C-p C-s
;;     add-new-page                     C-x C-p C-a
;;     sort-pages-buffer                C-x C-p s      
;;     set-page-delimiter               C-x C-p C-l
;;     pages-directory                  C-x C-p C-d   
;;     pages-directory-for-addresses    C-x C-p d
;;        pages-directory-goto          C-c C-c

\f
;;; Using the page commands
 
;; The page commands are helpful in several different contexts.  For
;; example, programmers often divide source files into sections using the
;; `page-delimiter'; you can use the `pages-directory' command to list
;; the sections.

;; You may change the buffer local value of the `page-delimiter' with
;; the `set-page-delimiter' command.  This command is bound to `C-x C-p
;; C-l' The command prompts you for a new value for the page-delimiter.
;; Called with a prefix-arg, the command resets the value of the
;; page-delimiter to its original value.

;; You may set several user options:
;;
;;   The `pages-directory-buffer-narrowing-p' variable causes the
;;   `pages-directory-goto' command to narrow to the destination page.
;;
;;   The `pages-directory-for-adding-page-narrowing-p' variable, causes the
;;   `add-new-page' command to narrow to the new entry.
;;
;;   The `pages-directory-for-adding-new-page-before-current-page-p' variable
;;   causes the `add-new-page' command to insert a new page before current
;;   page.
;;
;; These variables are true by default.
;;
;; Additional, addresses-related user options are described in the next page
;; of this file.

\f
;;; Handling an address list or small data base

;; You may use the page commands to handle an address list or other
;; small data base.  Put each address or entry on its own page.  The
;; first line of text in each page is a `header line' and is listed by
;; the `pages-directory' or `pages-directory-for-addresses' command.

;; Specifically:
;; 
;;   1. Begin each entry with a `page-delimiter' (which is, by default,
;;      `^L' at the beginning of the line).
;; 
;;   2. The first line of text in each entry is the `heading line'; it
;;      will appear in the pages-directory-buffer which is constructed
;;      using the `C-x C-p C-d' (pages-directory) command or the `C-x
;;      C-p d' (pages-directory-for-addresses) command.
;; 
;;      The heading line may be on the same line as the page-delimiter
;;      or it may follow after.  It is the first non-blank line on the
;;      page.  Conventionally, the heading line is placed on the line
;;      immediately following the line containing page-delimiter.
;;
;;   3. Follow the heading line with the body of the entry.  The body
;;      extends up to the next `page-delimiter'.  The body may be of any
;;      length.  It is conventional to place a blank line after the last
;;      line of the body.

;; For example, a file might look like this:
;; 
;;     FSF
;;     Free Software Foundation
;;     59 Temple Place - Suite 330
;;     Boston, MA 02111-1307  USA.

;;     monopolistic restrictions on the use of software technology.

;;     George Lakoff
;;     OBI (On line text collection.)

;; The `C-x C-p s' (sort-pages-buffer) command sorts the entries in the
;; buffer alphabetically.

;; You may use any of the page commands, including the `next-page',
;; `previous-page', `add-new-page', `mark-page', and `search-pages'
;; commands.

;; You may use either the `C-x C-p d' (pages-directory-for-addresses)
;; or the `C-x C-p C-d' (pages-directory) command to construct and
;; display a directory of all the heading lines.

;; In the directory, you may position the cursor over a heading line
;; and type `C-c C-c' (pages-directory-goto) to go to the entry to
;; which it refers in the pages buffer.

;; You can type `C-c C-p C-a' (add-new-page) to add a new entry in the
;; pages buffer or address file.  This is the same command you use to
;; add a new entry when you are in the pages buffer or address file.

;; If you wish, you may create several different directories,
;; one for each different buffer.

;; `pages-directory-for-addresses' in detail

;; The `pages-directory-for-addresses' assumes a default addresses
;; file.  You do not need to specify the addresses file but merely type
;; `C-x C-p d' from any buffer.  The command finds the file, constructs
;; a directory for it, and switches you to the directory.  If you call
;; the command with a prefix arg, `C-u C-x C-p d', it prompts you for a
;; file name.

;; You may customize the addresses commands:

;;   The `pages-addresses-file-name' variable determines the name of
;;   the addresses file; by default it is "~/addresses".

;;   The `pages-directory-for-addresses-goto-narrowing-p' variable
;;   determines whether `pages-directory-goto' narrows the addresses
;;   buffer to the entry, which it does by default.

;;   The `pages-directory-for-addresses-buffer-keep-windows-p' variable
;;   determines whether `pages-directory-for-addresses' deletes other
;;   windows to show as many lines as possible on the screen or works
;;   in the usual Emacs manner and keeps other windows.  Default is to
;;   keep other windows.

;;   The `pages-directory-for-adding-addresses-narrowing-p' variable
;;   determines whether `pages-directory-for-addresses' narrows the
;;   addresses buffer to a new entry when you are adding that entry.
;;   Default is to narrow to new entry, which means you see a blank
;;   screen before you write the new entry.

;; `pages-directory' in detail

;; Call the `pages-directory' command from the buffer for which you
;; want a directory created; it creates a directory for the buffer and
;; pops you to the directory.

;; The `pages-directory' command has several options:

;;   Called with a prefix arg, `C-u C-x C-p C-d', the `pages-directory'
;;   prompts you for a regular expression and only lists only those
;;   header lines that are part of pages that contain matches to the
;;   regexp.  In the example above, `C-u C-x C-p C-d 617 RET' would
;;   match the telephone area code of the first and fourth entries, so
;;   only the header lines of those two entries would appear in the
;;   pages-directory-buffer.
;; 
;;   Called with a numeric argument, the `pages-directory' command
;;   lists the number of lines in each page.  This is helpful when you
;;   are printing hardcopy.  

;;   Called with a negative numeric argument, the `pages-directory'
;;   command lists the lengths of pages whose contents match a regexp.
