*********

   Speedbar can run different types of Major display modes such as Files
(Note: File Mode), and Buffers (Note: Buffer Mode).  It can also
manage different minor display modes for use with buffers handling
specialized data.

   These major and minor display modes are handled through an extension
system which permits specialized keymaps and menu extensions, in
addition to a unique rendering function.  You can also specify a wide
range of tagging functions.  The default uses `imenu', but new tagging
methods can be easily added.  In this chapter, you will learn how to
write your own major or minor display modes, and how to create
specialized tagging functions.
