My installation is the current Debian package for emacs21, which only contains .elc, no .el files (that I can see). Is there a handy site with an un-packed source tree on it that I can browse to find this ? Or an anon CVS repository (I'll need an exact command line I can type - never used one yet) ? Or do I need to fetch and unpack an entire emacs source distribution to fish this one file out of it ? Eddy.
