 DOC is the documentation for the mode toggle command.
 
+The defined mode command takes one optional (prefix) argument.
+Interactively with no prefix argument it toggles the mode.
+With a prefix argument, it enables the mode if the argument is
+positive and otherwise disables it.  When called from Lisp, it
+enables the mode if the argument is omitted or nil, and toggles
+the mode if the argument is `toggle'.  If DOC is nil this
+function adds a basic doc-string stating these facts.

 Optional INIT-VALUE is the initial value of the mode's variable.
 Optional LIGHTER is displayed in the modeline when the mode is on.
 Optional KEYMAP is the default keymap bound to the mode keymap.
