Hello,

I have made the modifications to madx.el, and I am attaching the copyright assignment that I signed in February.

The madx-autoloads.el will be generated when installing the package from
forms that are prefix with

;;;###autoload

See `(elisp) Autoload'. You can test it out using M-x package-install-file.

You don't seem to be listed in copyright assignment file; to officially
assign copyright to the FSF you need to sign some legal papers.
Instructions to begin the process are at
https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/gnulib.git/tree/doc/Copyright/request-assign.future

I would prefer the close paren grouped with the sexp it closes, as in

`((,(regexp-opt '(;; font-lock-keyword-face
;; madx-font-lock-keywords-programflow
"IF"
"ELSEIF"
"ELSE"
"WHILE"
"MACRO")
'words)
. font-lock-keyword-face))

These two could be written as just "\\|TM?[1-6][1-6][1-6]"

I guess that extra "|" is a typo; again you could coalesce these into
"\\|BETA[1-3][1-3]P?", similar for the following ones.

define-derived-mode already does kill-all-local-variables,
use-local-map, and set-syntax-table, so you don't need to put them here.
