Revision: miles@gnu.org--gnu-2003/emacs--cvs-trunk--0--patch-62 Tweaks to admin/quick-install-emacs * quick-install-emacs: Remove fns-* pruning, since that file no longer seems to be generated. (AVOID): Quote literal periods. Quote braces in a way acceptable to all parties (gawk gets bitchy about using `\').

This directory contains source code for the parts of Emacs that are
written in Emacs Lisp.  *.el files are Emacs Lisp source, and the
corresponding *.elc files are byte-compiled versions.  Byte-compiled
files are architecture-independent.

The term subdirectory contains Lisp files that customize Emacs for
certain terminal types.  When Emacs starts, it checks the TERM
environment variable to get the terminal type and loads
`term/${TERM}.el' if it exists.

The other subdirectories hold Lisp packages grouped by their general
purpose.
