Hegbloom <karlheg(a)bittersweet.inetarena.com&gt; * modeline.el (modeline-minor-mode-menu): Add support for :active (add-minor-mode): Document :active property to TOGGLE. 1998-01-07 Karl M. Hegbloom <karlheg(a)bittersweet.inetarena.com&gt; * modeline.el (modeline-minor-mode-menu): Add support for an `:included' predicate in the `toggle-sym' plist. (add-minor-mode): Document the :included property, format docstring some more. (modeline-minor-mode-menu): Documentation string added. 1998-01-02 Karl M. Hegbloom <karlheg(a)bittersweet.inetarena.com&gt; * modeline.el (modeline-minor-mode-menu): genmenlab the menu labels from the symbol-names by thwacking off the overly redundant and overused "mode", parenthesizing "minor", and capitalizing the resultant strings. Also shortened the menu's title by eliminating the redundant buffer name. (add-minor-mode): Beautified the docstring, added mention of the `:menu-tag' property of TOGGLE. (modeline-minor-mode-menu): Frinked the `:menu-tag' property on `toggle-sym' to beatify the mode-life menus. * (abbrev-mode): (put)'ed a `:menu-tag' on it and `auto-fill-function'. 1998-01-02 Karl M. Hegbloom <&lt;karlheg(a)bittersweet.inetarena.com&gt;&gt; * modeline.el (modeline-minor-mode-menu): Changed the string-only menus to :style 'toggle.
