The format of that buffer is very specific, though. The entries must be on the format: (global-abbrev-table) "def" 0 "definition" with one blank line between the name of the section and the start of the definitions; neither more nor less. If you do it that way, does the mode work for you? In any case, I don't quite see why it's that strict about the format: It should just grok all the lines between the sections, I think? -- (domestic pets only, the antidote for overdose, milk.) bloggy blog: http://lars.ingebrigtsen.no
