Hello --

I'm looking for a C editing mode more thoroughly featured than that in
the distribution c-mode.el release.  In particular, code to expand
structures like "if" and "while", a set of pre-defined abbrevs, and a
enhancements to the comment mode that permit customization of the string
used to begin a continued comment would be of interest.  (These, among
others, are features of the Unipress emacs "electric-c" mode upon
which I grew to rely.)

I don't doubt this is an old and well-traveled question, but I am new
to GNU emacs.  Please respond by e-mail; if I receive sufficient "me,
too" messages, I'll post a summary of responses.

				Many thanks for all consideration ---
