I think every package said how to do it.  E.g.

    put this file somewhere and then add the following to your .emacs:

        (add-to-list 'load-path "/where/I/put/your/package")
        (autoload 'your-package-mode "your-package")
        ...

A quick `grep -C3 '^;\+ *(autoload' **/*.el` shows that many of Emacs's
own files still come with such instructions.
