+" Vim filetype plugin file
+" Language:	    generic Changelog file
+" Maintainer:	    Nikolai Weibull <source@pcppopper.org>
+" URL:		    http://www.pcppopper.org/vim/ftplugin/pcp/changelog/
+" Latest Revision:  2004-04-25
+" arch-tag:	    b00e2974-c559-4477-b7b2-3ef3f4061bdb
+" Variables:
+"   g:changelog_timeformat -
+"	description: the timeformat used in ChangeLog entries.
+"	default: "%Y-%m-%d".
+"   g:changelog_username -
+"	description: the username to use in ChangeLog entries
+"	default: try to deduce it from environment variables and system	files.
+" Local Mappings:
+"   <Leader>o -
+"	adds a new changelog entry for the current user for the current date.
+" Global Mappings:
+"   <Leader>o -
+"	switches to the ChangeLog buffer opened for the current directory, or
+"	opens it in a new buffer if it exists in the current directory.  Then
+"	it does the same as the local <Leader>o described above.
+" Notes:
+"   run 'runtime ftplugin/changelog.vim' to enable the global mapping for
+"   changelog files.
+" TODO:
+"  should we perhaps open the ChangeLog file even if it doesn't exist already?
+"  Problem is that you might end up with ChangeLog files all over the place.
