P.S.G.> I think your description is way too long. Most of that info
P.S.G.> should be in a man page or README file. I'd suggest:
P.S.G.> Package: gnuplot-mode
P.S.G.> Architecture: all
P.S.G.> Depends: emacs20 | xemacs20-mule | xemacs20-mule-canna-wnn | xemacs20-nomule | xemacs21-mule | xemacs21-mule-canna-wnn, gnuplot
P.S.G.> Description: A gnuplot mode for Emacs.
P.S.G.> Gnuplot is a major mode for Emacs favours with the following features:
P.S.G.> - Functions for plotting lines, regions, entire scripts, or entire files
P.S.G.> - Graphical interface to setting command arguments
P.S.G.> - Syntax colorization
P.S.G.> - Completion of common words in Gnuplot
P.S.G.> - Code indentation
P.S.G.> - On-line help using Info for Gnuplot functions and features
P.S.G.> - Interaction with Gnuplot using comint
P.S.G.> - Pull-down menus plus a toolbar in XEmacs
P.S.G.> - Distributed with a quick reference sheet in postscript.
Ok, I rewrite the description field as you say.
P.S.G.> And even so, most of the features listed above should be in a
P.S.G.> README file instead.
P.S.G.> Also, can you depend on `emacsen' instead of the long list?
No, may be. this mode cannot used in x?emacs19 series smoothly.
