#7 Don't override default auto-mode-alist

[Peter S Galbraith]

Hello,

Please see Debian bug htt:p://bugs.debian.org/557932

The entry:

;;;###autoload
(add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("\\.m$" . matlab-mode))

overrides the default Emacs setting of objc-mode.

I suggest using a defcustom (defaulting to nil) to set this up if desired.

Thanks,
Peter

Something like:

(defcustom matlab-auto-mode nil
"*Enter matlab-mode when editing .m files.
Technically, this adjusts the `auto-mode-list' when set.
To unset, you will have to restart Emacs."
:type 'boolean
:set (lambda (symbol value)
(set-default symbol value)
(cond
(value
(add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("\\.m\\'" . matlab-mode)))))
:require 'matlab)

:load 'matlab
:group 'emacs-goodies-el)

Sorry about the last two lines. Just something for me to add for Debian.
