Eelco Dolstra 0a623a10c7 * Allow a default value in attribute selection by writing
x.y.z or default

  (as originally proposed in
  https://mail.cs.uu.nl/pipermail/nix-dev/2009-September/002989.html).

  For instance, an expression like

    stdenv.lib.attrByPath ["features" "ckSched"] false args

  can now be written as

    args.features.ckSched or false

(defun nix-mode ()
"Major mode for editing Nix expressions.
The following commands may be useful:
'\\[newline-and-indent]'
Insert a newline and move the cursor to align with the previous
non-empty line.
'\\[fill-paragraph]'
Refill a paragraph so that all lines are at most `fill-column'
lines long. This should do the right thing for comments beginning
with `#'. However, this command doesn't work properly yet if the
comment is adjacent to code (i.e., no intervening empty lines).
In that case, select the text to be refilled and use
`\\[fill-region]' instead.
The hook `nix-mode-hook' is run when Nix mode is started.
