+;;; Emacs major mode for editing SubX files. -*- coding: utf-8; lexical-binding: t; -*-
+
+;; Author: Kartik Agaram (subx.el@akkartik.com)
+;; Version: 0.0.1
+;; Created: 28 Dec 2019
+;; Keywords: languages
+;; Homepage: https://github.com/akkartik/mu
+
+;;; Commentary:
+
+;; I don't know how to define new faces in an emacs package, so I'm
+;; cannibalizing existing faces.
+;;
+;; I load this file like so in my .emacs:
+;;    (load "/absolute/path/to/subx.el")
+;;    (add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("\\.subx\\'" . subx-mode))
+;;
+;; Education on the right way to do this most appreciated.
