The set of functions is slightly different. Cookie.el has some extra features. > Would it be easy to write a cookie-compatible front end for ewoc? No idea. Doesn't seem worth the trouble. > Or change the various programs that now use cookie.el to use > ewoc.el instead? Yes, that's pretty easy. The main user of cookie.el was PCL-CVS which has been the driving force behind ewoc.el (and I don't know if any other package uses ewoc, to tell you the truth). I don't know if there still exists a package using cookie.el. Stefan
