Here are some > names i've called it (and the class of software it > embodies): After a webgrep, I found http://www.gnuvola.org/software/personal-elisp/ but the topmost hits are 404, like http://www.glug.org/people/ttn/software/ The page that works seems to be version 1.59 from 2008, so that is the "last release". But that was five years ago... Without comparing our projects, because I have yet to open the first .el file, what I do is, I just have symbolic links in a directory called "conf", then an alias to copy them to a remote (safe, I hope) location. I setup this to have a fast backup command, and not to "release" stuff, but I don't see a conflict in that. (That folder is very useful as an "index" of configuration, as well.) Just a thought... Anyway, this will be very interesting. It all looks very professional. But what I immediately looked for and didn't find was a file like PURPOSE. Perhaps tomorrow I'll write such a short file describing my own project. After one million jokes and poems, I am not the slightest surprised to find this super-ambitious project. -- Emanuel Berg, programmer-for-rent.
