That used to happen, but one directory up; the readme for ada-mode was in ~/.emacs.d/elpa, next to ada-mode-. However, that readme was often out of date. To access the readme now, use ? in the *Packages* buffer. That uses the installed package files if it is installed.

Is that not the case for elquery? -- -- Stephe
