Hello, 

Has anybody once written an emacs mode (including syntax highlighting)
for David Beazley's `Simplified Wrapper and Interface Generator' (SWIG)
interface definition language?

Of course the c-mode works in a limited manner, but all the swig
specific identifiers (those starting with `%') are misinterpreted
especially during indentation. Also the very helpful documentation
feature could need some help, e.g. the emacs could assure that one only
uses `subsection' within a `section', and that there is only one
`title'.

I (and I think not only me) would really appreciate to have swig.el (or
whichever name) or see it in public places like gnu.emacs.sources.

Cheers

Martin
