Look for words, try to distinguish licensing from commentary, then somewhere there maybe you find an explanation. It is like entering dark labyrinth, you never know what is out there, but is interesting. I am not sure any more, but I remember something like MONITOR command, I could enter into memory of Commodore plus/4 and for hours I could watch and browse those hex numbers, and watching on right side the symbols and letters, figuring out what it all means. To find out all *-mode(s) you can do this: M-x find-library RET -mode TAB TAB and you will see them all, it is interesting. Go one by one carefully, enter inside and read commentaries, until you get tired, then switch to movie, music, or sleeping, keep doing it, and after many attempts you will get quite new cognition about it. I am still doing it by the way. I have no idea what people talk about on `git log' but I keep reading. -- Jean Louis
