+The following commands may be useful:
+
+  '\\[newline-and-indent]'
+    Insert a newline and move the cursor to align with the previous
+    non-empty line.
+
+  '\\[fill-paragraph]'
+    Refill a paragraph so that all lines are at most `fill-column'
+    lines long.  This should do the right thing for comments beginning
+    with `#'.  However, this command doesn't work properly yet if the
+    comment is adjacent to code (i.e., no intervening empty lines).
+    In that case, select the text to be refilled and use
+    `\\[fill-region]' instead.

+The hook `nix-mode-hook' is run when Nix mode is started.
