Thanks, fixed.

No, it was a typo in hexl-follow-ascii-mode.

Hi,


Windows 7
Emacs git master/2018.6.24 at least


When I try to toggle hexl-mode, it reports
"defvar: Symbol's value as variable is void: hexl-follow-ascii-mode".


It looks like the definiation of hexl-follow-ascii-mode is incorect.


From the doc of define-minor-mode, it requires INIT-VALUE LIGHTER KEYMAP or at least one keyword argument. 

According to the DOC of hexl-follow-ascii-mode, I think the following patch should be proper.
