-;;; Commentary:
-
-;; This package provides a general print handler for prin1 and princ
-;; that supports print-level and print-circle, and by the way,
-;; print-length since the standard routines are being replaced. Also,
-;; to print custom types constructed from lists and vectors, use
-;; custom-print-list and custom-print-vector. See the documentation
-;; strings of these variables for more details.
-
-;; If the results of your expressions contain circular references to
-;; other parts of the same structure, the standard Emacs print
-;; subroutines may fail to print with an untrappable error,
-;; "Apparently circular structure being printed". If you only use cdr
-;; circular lists (where cdrs of lists point back; what is the right
-;; term here?), you can limit the length of printing with
-;; print-length. But car circular lists and circular vectors generate
-;; the above mentioned error in Emacs version 18. Version
-;; 19 supports print-level, but it is often useful to get a better
-;; print representation of circular and shared structures; the print-circle
-;; option may be used to print more concise representations.
-
-;; There are three main ways to use this package. First, you may
-;; replace prin1, princ, and some subroutines that use them by calling
-;; install-custom-print so that any use of these functions in
-;; Lisp code will be affected; you can later reset with
-;; uninstall-custom-print. Second, you may temporarily install
-;; these functions with the macro with-custom-print. Third, you
-;; could call the custom routines directly, thus only affecting the
-;; printing that requires them.
-
-;; Note that subroutines which call print subroutines directly will
-;; not use the custom print functions. In particular, the evaluation
-;; functions like eval-region call the print subroutines directly.
-;; Therefore, if you evaluate (aref circ-list 0), where circ-list is a
-;; circular list rather than an array, aref calls error directly which
-;; will jump to the top level instead of printing the circular list.
-
-;; Uninterned symbols are recognized when print-circle is non-nil,
-;; but they are not printed specially here. Use the cl-packages package
-;; to print according to print-gensym.
-
-;; Obviously the right way to implement this custom-print facility is
-;; in C or with hooks into the standard printer. Please volunteer
-;; since I don't have the time or need. More CL-like printing
-;; capabilities could be added in the future.
-
-;; Implementation design: we want to use the same list and vector
-;; processing algorithm for all versions of prin1 and princ, since how
-;; the processing is done depends on print-length, print-level, and
-;; print-circle. For circle printing, a preprocessing step is
-;; required before the final printing. Thanks to Jamie Zawinski
-;; for motivation and algorithms.

+;;; Commentary:
+
+;; This package provides a general print handler for prin1 and princ
+;; that supports print-level and print-circle, and by the way,
+;; print-length since the standard routines are being replaced. Also,
+;; to print custom types constructed from lists and vectors, use
+;; custom-print-list and custom-print-vector. See the documentation
+;; strings of these variables for more details.
+
+;; If the results of your expressions contain circular references to
+;; other parts of the same structure, the standard Emacs print
+;; subroutines may fail to print with an untrappable error,
+;; "Apparently circular structure being printed". If you only use cdr
+;; circular lists (where cdrs of lists point back; what is the right
+;; term here?), you can limit the length of printing with
+;; print-length. But car circular lists and circular vectors generate
+;; the above mentioned error in Emacs version 18. Version
+;; 19 supports print-level, but it is often useful to get a better
+;; print representation of circular and shared structures; the print-circle
+;; option may be used to print more concise representations.
+
+;; There are three main ways to use this package. First, you may
+;; replace prin1, princ, and some subroutines that use them by calling
+;; install-custom-print so that any use of these functions in
+;; Lisp code will be affected; you can later reset with
+;; uninstall-custom-print. Second, you may temporarily install
+;; these functions with the macro with-custom-print. Third, you
+;; could call the custom routines directly, thus only affecting the
+;; printing that requires them.
+
+;; Note that subroutines which call print subroutines directly will
+;; not use the custom print functions. In particular, the evaluation
+;; functions like eval-region call the print subroutines directly.
+;; Therefore, if you evaluate (aref circ-list 0), where circ-list is a
+;; circular list rather than an array, aref calls error directly which
+;; will jump to the top level instead of printing the circular list.
+
+;; Uninterned symbols are recognized when print-circle is non-nil,
+;; but they are not printed specially here. Use the cl-packages package
+;; to print according to print-gensym.
+
+;; Obviously the right way to implement this custom-print facility is
+;; in C or with hooks into the standard printer. Please volunteer
+;; since I don't have the time or need. More CL-like printing
+;; capabilities could be added in the future.
+
+;; Implementation design: we want to use the same list and vector
+;; processing algorithm for all versions of prin1 and princ, since how
+;; the processing is done depends on print-length, print-level, and
+;; print-circle. For circle printing, a preprocessing step is
+;; required before the final printing. Thanks to Jamie Zawinski
+;; for motivation and algorithms.
