1 More Neat Stuff for your Emacs -*-Outline-*- | |
2 | |
3 This file describes GNU Emacs programs and resources that are maintained | |
4 by other people. Some of these may become part of the Emacs distribution | |
5 in the future. | |
6 | |
7 * The LCD archive | |
8 | |
9 There is a large collection of Emacs Lisp code available for FTP at | |
10 archive.cis.ohio-state.edu; it is actively maintained by Dave Brennan | |
11 <brennan@hal.com> and Dave Sill <de5@ornl.gov>. | |
12 | |
13 To get started using this archive, do: | |
14 | |
15 ftp archive.cis.ohio-state.edu | |
16 | |
17 Once you're in FTP, do | |
18 | |
19 cd pub/gnu/emacs/elisp-archive | |
20 bin | |
21 get lispdir.el.Z | |
22 get LCD-datafile.Z | |
23 | |
24 and exit. Then do: | |
25 | |
26 compress -d *.Z | |
27 | |
28 The lispdir.el package will help you search for useful packages in the | |
29 LCD-datafile, which is a list of the archive constants. It will even | |
30 fetch them for you on command. | |
31 | |
32 * Eric Ludlam's etalk system | |
33 | |
34 Eric Ludlam has written a C program and Emacs Lisp code to do Internet talk | |
35 through an Emacs window. The package also includes Emacs Lisp code which | |
36 assists you in using talk to play a number of different interactive games. | |
37 | |
38 This system seems to be quite nicely put together and is well documented | |
39 with a texinfo file that you can integrate into Emacs's own on-line help. | |
40 It's too large and specialized to include in the Emacs distribution, though. | |
41 | |
42 Sources of this system are available for FTP at | |
43 | |
44 nic.umass.edu 128.119.166.14 | |
45 | |
46 Look under pub/contrib. As of March 23 1993, there are two relevant files: | |
47 | |
48 pub/contrib/etalk0.6B.tar.Z --- sources of the talk system | |
49 pub/contrib/egames0.6B.tar.Z --- more game-support files | |
50 | |
51 We don't know whether this can use the additional features in GNU talk. | |
