+;;; Commentary:
+;;
+;; This mode is designed to edit many similar varieties of Conf/Ini files and
+;; Java properties. It started out from Aurélien Tisné's ini-mode.
+;; `conf-space-keywords' were inspired by Robert Fitzgerald's any-ini-mode.

+ "Mode for Unix and Windows Conf files and Java properties.
+Most conf files know only three kinds of constructs: parameter
+assignments optionally grouped into sections and comments. Yet
+there is a great range of variation in the exact syntax of conf
+files. See below for various wrapper commands that set up the
+details for some of the most widespread variants.
+
+This mode sets up font locking, outline, imenu and it provides
+alignment support through `conf-align-assignments'. If strings
+come out wrong, try `conf-quote-normal'.
+
+Some files allow continuation lines, either with a backslash at
+the end of line, or by indenting the next line (further). These
+constructs cannot currently be recognized.
+
+Because of this great variety of nuances, which are often not
+even clearly specified, please don't expect it to get every file
+quite right. Patches that clearly identify some special case,
+without breaking the general ones, are welcome.
+
+If instead you start this mode with the generic `conf-mode'
+command, it will parse the buffer. It will generally well
+identify the first four cases listed below. If the buffer
+doesn't have enough contents to decide, this is identical to
+`conf-windows-mode' on Windows, elsewhere to `conf-unix-mode'. See
