BAW> 2. Now that I've got all the packages installed, what tools are BAW> available for me to uninstall packages (see below), get updates Hmmh, don't know. BAW> from the net (perhaps with signature verification), etc. The Package installation includes md5sum checking. (find-file (locate-library "package-get.el")) and (find-file (locate-library "package-get-base.el")) have been my best friends as far as packages go. (load-library "package-get-base") (load-library "package-get") (package-get 'prog-modes nil) will install the newest available version of the prog-modes package, provided you have the EFS chicken^H^H^H^H^H^H^Hegg^H^H^Hpackage installed. Use (package-get-update-all) for the ultimate experience. HTH, Adrian BAW> XEmacs info manual doesn't seem to talk much about package tools, BAW> and I don't know of a good way to find out what packages have been BAW> updated since I last downloaded them circa b44. (yes I know I BAW> could read Steve's announcements, but still, that's not a good BAW> general solution). BAW> I eventually just rm'd packages/lisp/skk/, packages/etc/skk/, and BAW> packages/info/skk* but I didn't know if there were better tools to BAW> do package management. -- Adrian Aichner Applications Engineer Teradyne GmbH Semiconductor Test Group Telephone +49/89/41861(0)-208 Dingolfinger Strasse 2 Fax +49/89/41861-217 D-81673 MUENCHEN E-mail aichner(a)ecf.teradyne.com
