+1.
But: these -> those,
runnuing -> running,
and we can drop the comma before "prior".
And I'm not sure why we need to or should say "(including...)". Why?
I'd suggest just this:
many programming language modes run `prog-mode-hook' before
running their own mode hooks
Or even "some" instead of "many". What does it matter how
many do this?
