When I posted recently about the irony of melpa's site not being usable from within Emacs, the context was that some web browsing (e.g. Sacha Chua's Emacs news posts) may have links to the melpa website. Yes, I can manually bring up the package list and search for the particular package, and I do do that, but it would sure be nice to simply follow the link and see the package information. 1st world problem, eh? ;-) -- Eric S Fraga via Emacs 28.0.50 & org 9.3.6 on Debian 9.9
