I wondered if there was some code floating around that would allow emacs to check for newer versions of .el files in my load path that are not part of emacs officially? I am relatively new to emacs and try to avoid outside libraries but there is so much cool stuff on the wiki. I wonder if a bash script is enough to check for a new version of something from time to time or there is simpler way to coax emacs to do this? -- Peter.
