 <h3 class="section">Standard Abbrev Tables</h3>  <p>Here we list the variables that hold the abbrev tables for the preloaded major modes of Emacs. </p> <dl> <dt id="global-abbrev-table">Variable: <strong>global-abbrev-table</strong>
</dt> <dd><p>This is the abbrev table for mode-independent abbrevs. The abbrevs defined in it apply to all buffers. Each buffer may also have a local abbrev table, whose abbrev definitions take precedence over those in the global table. </p></dd>
</dl> <dl> <dt id="local-abbrev-table">Variable: <strong>local-abbrev-table</strong>
</dt> <dd><p>The value of this buffer-local variable is the (mode-specific) abbreviation table of the current buffer. It can also be a list of such tables. </p></dd>
</dl> <dl> <dt id="abbrev-minor-mode-table-alist">Variable: <strong>abbrev-minor-mode-table-alist</strong>
</dt> <dd><p>The value of this variable is a list of elements of the form <code>(<var>mode</var> . <var>abbrev-table</var>)</code> where <var>mode</var> is the name of a variable: if the variable is bound to a non-<code>nil</code> value, then the <var>abbrev-table</var> is active, otherwise it is ignored. <var>abbrev-table</var> can also be a list of abbrev tables. </p></dd>
</dl> <dl> <dt id="fundamental-mode-abbrev-table">Variable: <strong>fundamental-mode-abbrev-table</strong>
</dt> <dd><p>This is the local abbrev table used in Fundamental mode; in other words, it is the local abbrev table in all buffers in Fundamental mode. </p></dd>
</dl> <dl> <dt id="text-mode-abbrev-table">Variable: <strong>text-mode-abbrev-table</strong>
</dt> <dd><p>This is the local abbrev table used in Text mode. </p></dd>
</dl> <dl> <dt id="lisp-mode-abbrev-table">Variable: <strong>lisp-mode-abbrev-table</strong>
</dt> <dd><p>This is the local abbrev table used in Lisp mode. It is the parent of the local abbrev table used in Emacs Lisp mode. See <a href="abbrev-table-properties">Abbrev Table Properties</a>. </p></dd>
