Minor Mode for Blosxom Files?

Minor Mode for Blosxom Files?

[Robert Uhl]

I edit a blosxom and have associated html-mode with files ending in
.blos.  I'd like to go a bit further and create a Blosxom minor mode
which would, among other things, convert '--' to '—' and "'" to
'’' when a file is saved and unconvert 'em when it's opened.
Might anyone have advice how to do this cleanly?

If my theory of relativity is proven successful, Germany will claim me
as a German, and France will declare that I am a citizen of the world.
Should my theory prove untrue, France will say that I am a German, and
Germany will declare that I am a Jew.          --Albert Einstein, 1929

French General: `I knew it.  You Germans are only useful as garrison soldiers.'
German Colonel: `True.  In the last war, we garrisoned Paris, Nice, Lyon...'
