This package contains a collection of useful emacs lisp programs
that were posted by various people to the gnu.emacs.sources
Newsgroup or are available from the emacs-lisp archive.

I created an example .emacs file that loads / autoloads these
programs and sets some of the nice features that are available
with emacs 19.22 such as

fonts for font-lock (different fonts / colors for keywords, strings 
                     and comments in C or other languages)

save-place (save the current place in each file when you leave it)

european display (display accents and umlauts :)

some additional menus 

key bindings to move from word to word with ctrl-arrows
                move and mark with shift-arrows


among the programs are :

ediff (the best diff / patch tool I know)
jka-compress (use compressed files transparently)
ilisp (lisp environment, works with akcl (linux) and CMU (on suns))
mldrag (drag the modeline with the mouse)
inspect (c++ class inspector addition for the gud mode in emacs with gdb)
tcl-mode
fvwm-mode (different fonts when editing fvwm configuration files
folding mode 

...

I hope this package is useful for some people.

Please send comments and bug reports concerning the .emacs file 
to me and bug reports concernung the individual lisp programs 
to their authors (see the .el files)
