How do I setup ELPA (http://tromey.com/elpa/) if if I am behind a
proxy? I am using the latest CVS-version of Emacs.

Thanks in advance,
Nordlöw

I haven't tried it, but I suggest reading about proxies in the `url'
manual.  ELPA uses `url' when it is available, which it is in CVS
Emacs.  Maybe try:

    (setenv "http_proxy" "my.proxy.host:port")

Hi Tom,

   ELPA uses `url' when it is available, which it is in CVS
   Emacs. 

How do you check ? With featurep ? It none is found, how do you
revert to a default method ?

Regards,

	Xavier

Actually, I forgot ... the package.el *installer* uses url if
available, otherwise it uses wget.  (If wget isn't available the
installer just fails.)

package.el itself uses url; the installer will download and install
url as the first package if you are using Emacs 21.  Emacs 22 and
later include url.

Sounds good. Thank you.
