[ .... ].

Yes, correct in every respect.  :-)  In that commit you refer to, I
misunderstood an undocumented feature/bug in the handling of a bare mode
(without the string "mode:") in the first line.

I've committed a fix to this in the master branch, and I'd be grateful
if you would test it and either confirm to me it's OK, or tell me what's
still wrong.

Thanks!
