Re: Enhancing ELisp for AI Work

["Andreas Röhler" <andreas.roehler@easy-emacs.de>]

Hi Jean,

tried your code delivered at 
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/help-gnu-emacs/2024-12/msg00363.html

which works nicely, thanks!

Notably it's much smaller than the stuff seen so far.

Is there a repo for it?

Maybe some tweaks be of interest for other too.


Cheers,

Andreas
