Thanks for the help.  I noticed that my .emacs
doesn't launch my c-mode config function
via c-mode-hook but rather from this beast...

   (setq auto-mode-alist  '(("\\.c\\'"    . cs-c-mode)
                            ("\\.C\\'"    . cs-c-mode)
                            ("\\.cpp\\'"  . cs-c-mode)
                            ("\\.h\\'"    . cs-c-mode)
                            ("\\.java\\'" . cs-c-mode)))


Is the same, worse or better??? I wanted to make my own
simple language mode and somewhere I discovered that
auto-mode-alist would point certain file suffixes
to my c-mode config function.
