;;; boxquote.el --- Quote text with a semi-box.

;; For details see the file COPYING.

;;; Commentary:

;; boxquote provides a set of functions for using a text quoting style that
;; partially boxes in the left hand side of an area of text, such a marking
;; style might be used to show externally included text or example code.
;;
;; ,----
;; | The default style looks like this.
;; `----
;;
;; A number of functions are provided for quoting a region, a buffer, a
;; paragraph and a defun. There are also functions for quoting text while
;; pulling it in, either by inserting the contents of another file or by
;; yanking text into the current buffer.
;;
;; The latest version of boxquote.el can be found at:
;;
;;   <URL:http://www.davep.org/emacs/#boxquote.el>

;;; Thanks:

;; Kai Grossjohann for inspiring the idea of boxquote. I wrote this code to
;; mimic the "inclusion quoting" style in his Usenet posts. I could have
;; hassled him for his code but it was far more fun to write it myself.
;;
;; Mark Milhollan for providing a patch that helped me get the help quoting
;; functions working with XEmacs.
;;
;; Oliver Much for suggesting the idea of having a `boxquote-kill-ring-save'
;; function.
;;
;; Reiner Steib for suggesting `boxquote-where-is' and the idea of letting
;; `boxquote-describe-key' describe key bindings from other buffers. Also
;; thanks go to Reiner for suggesting `boxquote-insert-buffer'.
