More Neat Stuff for your Emacs -*-Outline-*-
This file describes GNU Emacs programs and resources that are maintained
by other people. Some of these may become part of the Emacs distribution
in the future.
* The LCD archive
There is a large collection of Emacs Lisp code available for FTP at
archive.cis.ohio-state.edu; it is actively maintained by Dave Brennan
<brennan@hal.com> and Dave Sill <de5@ornl.gov>.
To get started using this archive, do:
ftp archive.cis.ohio-state.edu
Once you're in FTP, do
cd pub/gnu/emacs/elisp-archive
bin
get lispdir.el.Z
get LCD-datafile.Z
and exit. Then do:
compress -d *.Z
The lispdir.el package will help you search for useful packages in the
LCD-datafile, which is a list of the archive constants. It will even
fetch them for you on command.
* Eric Ludlam's etalk system
Eric Ludlam has written a C program and Emacs Lisp code to do Internet talk
through an Emacs window. The package also includes Emacs Lisp code which
assists you in using talk to play a number of different interactive games.
This system seems to be quite nicely put together and is well documented
with a texinfo file that you can integrate into Emacs's own on-line help.
It's too large and specialized to include in the Emacs distribution, though.
Sources of this system are available for FTP at
nic.umass.edu 128.119.166.14
Look under pub/contrib. As of March 23 1993, there are two relevant files:
pub/contrib/etalk0.6B.tar.Z --- sources of the talk system
pub/contrib/egames0.6B.tar.Z --- more game-support files
We don't know whether this can use the additional features in GNU talk.
