" 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.
