;; This file adds some support for Dednat6 to Emacs. To use it, put
;; something like this in your .emacs:
;;
;;   (load "~/path_to_this_file/dednat6.el")
;;
;; or execute the sexp above with `C-x C-e' or something similar.
;;
;; Dednat6 is explained here:

;;   http://angg.twu.net/dednat6/tug-slides.pdf
;;   http://angg.twu.net/dednat6/tugboat-rev2.pdf

;;
;; This file defines the commands `M-x diagskel', that inserts a
;; skeleton of a(n empty) 2D diagram at point, and `M-x dednames',
;; that is a bit harder to understand - so here is an example.

"When you load this file in Emacs it will treat this multi-line
string as a comment. To test `M-x dednames' mark the %:-block
below as the region, put the point at the end of it,

%:
%:   A
%:   :
%:   B    [B]^1  D  [C]^1  E     A
%:  ---   ::::::::  ::::::::     :
%:  BvC       F        F         B     D
%:  --------------------1        -------
%:            F                     F
%:
%:            ^before               ^after
%:

and run `M-x dednames'. It will insert something like

  \\pu
  $$\\ded{before} \\qquad \\ded{after}$$

at point, but without the double slashes. Don't forget to undo
your changes to this file!"
