+;; functions with them. It also provides the `superword-mode' minor
+;; mode that treats symbols as words, the opposite of `subword-mode'.
;; In spite of GNU Coding Standards, it is popular to name a symbol by

;; The subword oriented commands defined in this package recognize
;; subwords in a nomenclature to move between them and to edit them as

;; In the minor mode, all common key bindings for word oriented
;; commands are overridden by the subword oriented commands:
-;; Key Word oriented command Subword oriented command
