;; In addition to two-column editing of text, for example for writing a
;; bilingual text side-by-side as shown below in the file's prolog, other
;; interesting uses have been found for this minor mode:
;;
;;
;; You can separate the columns with {+} C-x 6 u or <f2> u if you prefer

;;
;;
;; keyword You can write any text corresponding to a
;; given keyword in a filled paragraph next to
;; it. Note that the width of the first column
;; may be less than window-min-width in the
;; result, but will be displayed at that width.
;;
;; another This is not a three- or multi-column mode.
;; The example in the file's prolog required
;; working on two columns and then treating the
;; result as one column in order to add the
;; third.
;;
;;
;; Programmers might like the ability to split off the comment column of
;; a file that looks like the following. The advantage is that with
;; (setq fill-prefix "-- ") you can run M-q (fill-paragraph) on the
;; comment. The problem is, code quickly gets rather wide, so you need
;; to use a narrower comment column, which is less interesting, unless
;; you have a 132-column screen. Code lines that reach beyond
;; comment-column are no problem, except that you won't always see their
;; end during editing.
;;
;; BEGIN -- This is just some meaningless
;; FOR i IN 1..10 LOOP -- code in Ada, that runs foobar
;; foobar( i ); -- once for each argument from one
;; foobar( i ); -- once for each argument from one
;; END LOOP; -- to ten, and then we're already
;; END; -- through with it.
;;
;; Better yet, you can put the point before "This", type M-3 C-x 6 u
;; which makes "-- " the separator between a no-comments Ada buffer, and
;; a plain text comment buffer. When you put them back together, every
;; non-empty line of the 2nd column will again be preceded by "-- ".
;;
;;
;; The <f2> function key hack (which is one of the rare times when
;; function keys are mnemonic) at the end of the file's prolog requires
;; that the lisp/term/*.el for your terminal use the standard
;; conventions. Too bad that some don't (at least not in version 18.55).
;; The Sun one is hopelessly non-standard, and vt2[024]0 somehow forgot
;; to define <f1> thru <f5>. (It defines <pf1> thru <pf4> instead, but
;; that is not what we need on an X terminal.) If you want to use those,
;; you'll need another hack something like:
;;
;; (if (string= (system-name) "cix")
;; (progn
;; (load-library "term/vt200.el")
;; (define-key CSI-map "12~" (cons function-keymap ?\^b)))
;; (global-unset-key "\e[")
;; (define-key esc-map "[225z" (cons function-keymap ?\^b)))
;;
;; where "cix" is the non-sun machine I use. Actually I use the same X
;; terminal to connect to both machines, and I want to keep my ~/.emacs
;; identical on both. Bother, the two Emacses don't recognize the same
;; keys and assign different sequences to those they do! I sure hope all
;; this nonsense will stop with version 19 (or preferably soon) where I'd
;; like to be able to say (define-key some-map '<f2> some-cmd), and see
;; <f2> rather than some unintelligible ESC-sequence in command key
;; sequences.
;; Pli bone ankora^u, vi povas pozici- Better yet, you can put the point
;; i^gi anta^u "This", tajpi M-3 f2 s before "This", type M-3 f2 s
;; kiu igas "-- " la separigilon inter which makes "-- " the separator
