Does anyone have any comments on this patch? I've basically added a
function package-get-create-custom to package-get.el that creates a buffer
full of defcustom declarations for installed / possible packages packages
based on package-get-base.el.
You can then run customize and toggle which packages you want. Then running
package-get-custom gets alls the the packages you have selected. Its not as
feature rich as what is suggested by the comments in package-get.el, but it
works and is a lot more accessible than the current procedure.
I was going to add these features as well but wanted some feedback first
- dump package-get-custom.el with XEmacs (is there a better way?)
- show state of installed packages on customize list
- predicate its use on xemacs-base and efs.
- Add a hook to auto get the packages on leaving the customize interface.
