I would like to be able to write `;h1` in emacs and be transformed to
`@c h1 *` when in texinfo-mode. But only if it starts at the beginning
of the line.
But actually I would like for this to happen in any mode, by replacing
`@c` with the comment label of the particular major mode I am in.

M-; starts a comment in all major modes, is that what you want?

I want some kind of replacement, because I want to avoid having to press
the Shift Key frequently to get `@` and `*`.
I could write `;h1` to get `@c h1 *`, with the number of `*` being defined
by the numeric value preceeding the letter `h`.

I don't understand: what Shift key? M-; doesn't require any Shift
keys, and it inserts @c in Texinfo. So what is the problem?
