XF> I agree. Showing the dependencies would be useful, too. OK. Any objections to: * adding filtering by Keywords in the packages list? * showing the Keywords in the packages list? * showing the Keywords in the package description? The package.el TODO says: ;; - should store the package's keywords in archive-contents, then ;; let the users filter the package-menu by keyword. See ;; finder-by-keyword. so it seems this will require backend work by the GNU ELPA tools to put the Keywords in the package description. Stefan, WDYT? Finally, in addition to the Keywords, is there a package category, meaning a single word to describe its purpose? It might be more suitable for display in the packages list and could let us set up a hierarchy in the packages list to avoid the current "2500+ entries in a flat list" situation. Ted
