 1 Introduction
 **************
 
 Supercite is a GNU Emacs package written entirely in Emacs Lisp.  It
 interfaces to most of the commonly used Emacs mail user agents (“MUAs”)
 and news user agents (“NUAs”), and provides sophisticated facilities for
 the citing and attributing of message replies.  Supercite has a very
 specific and limited role in the process of composing replies to both
 USENET network news and electronic mail.
 
    The preferred way to spell Supercite is with a capital ‘S’, lowercase
 ‘upercite’.

· What Supercite Does
 
    Supercite is only useful in conjunction with MUAs and NUAs such as
 VM, Gnus, RMAIL, MH-E, etc.  Supercite is typically called by the MUA
 after a reply buffer has been setup.  Thereafter, Supercite’s many
 commands and formatting styles are available in that reply buffer until
 the reply is sent.  Supercite is re-initialized in each new reply
 buffer.
