Commit Message

Paul Koning July 10, 2018, 4:50 p.m. UTC 
"mode" is documented as a variable attribute but not as a type attribute.  This fixes that omission.  I simply copied the other text, it seemed suitable as it stands.

The attributes are normally listed in alphabetical order but "mode" was out of order in the variable attributes.

Ok for trunk?

	paul

ChangeLog:

2018-07-10  Paul Koning  <ni1d@arrl.net>

	* doc/extend.texi (Common Variable Attributes): Move "mode" into
	alphabetical order.
	(Common Type Attributes): Add "mode" attribute.
