+ @defmac define-global-minor-mode global-mode mode turn-on keyword-args...
+ This defines a global minor mode named @var{global-mode} whose meaning
+ is to enable the buffer-local minor mode @var{mode} in every buffer.
+ To turn on the minor mode in a buffer, it uses the function
+ @var{turn-on}; to turn off the minor mode, it calls @code{mode} with
+ @minus{}1 as argument.
+ 
+ Use @code{:group @var{group}} in @var{keyword-args} to specify the
+ custom group for the mode variable of the global minor mode.
