+More Neat Stuff for your Emacs
-This file describes GNU Emacs programs and resources that are maintained
-by other people. Some of these may become part of the Emacs distribution
-in the future.

-* The LCD archive
+This file describes GNU Emacs programs and resources that are
+maintained by other people. Some of these may become part of the
+Emacs distribution in the future. Others we unfortunately can't
+distribute, even though they are free software, because we lack legal
+papers for copyright purposes. Also included are sites where
+development versions of some packages distributed with Emacs may be
+found.
-There is a large collection of Emacs Lisp code available for FTP at
-archive.cis.ohio-state.edu; it is actively maintained by Dave Brennan
-<brennan@hal.com> and Dave Sill <de5@ornl.gov>.
+You might also look at the Emacs web page
+<URL:http://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/emacs.html>. If you use the
+Windows-32 version of Emacs, see the NTEmacs sites listed in the FAQ.
-To get started using this archive, do:
+Please submit a bug report if you find that any of the addresses
+listed here fail.
- ftp archive.cis.ohio-state.edu
+* The `Emacs Lisp List' at
+ <URL:http://www.damtp.cam.ac.uk/user/eglen/emacs/ell.html> has pointers
+ to sources of a large number of packages.
-Once you're in FTP, do
+* gnu.emacs.sources
- cd pub/gnu/emacs/elisp-archive
- bin
- get lispdir.el.Z
- get LCD-datafile.Z
+Packages posted to the gnu.emacs.sources newsgroup (see
+etc/MAILINGLISTS) might be archived specifically (try a web search
+engine) or retrievable from general Usenet archive services.
-and exit. Then do:
+* emacswiki.org
- compress -d *.Z
+The Emacs Wiki has an area for storing elisp files
+<URL:http://www.emacswiki.org/cgi-bin/wiki.pl/ElispArea>.
-The lispdir.el package will help you search for useful packages in the
-LCD-datafile, which is a list of the archive constants. It will even
-fetch them for you on command.
+* Emacs tutorials and manuals
-* Eric Ludlam's etalk system
+ * Emacs slides and tutorials can be found here:
+ <URL:http://stuff.mit.edu/iap/emacs/>
-Eric Ludlam has written a C program and Emacs Lisp code to do Internet talk
-through an Emacs window. The package also includes Emacs Lisp code which
-assists you in using talk to play a number of different interactive games.
+* Maintenance versions of some packages distributed with Emacs
-This system seems to be quite nicely put together and is well documented
-with a texinfo file that you can integrate into Emacs's own on-line help.
-It's too large and specialized to include in the Emacs distribution, though.
+You might find bug-fixes or enhancements in these places.
-Sources of this system are available for FTP at
+ * Ada-mode: <URL:http://libre.act-europe.fr/adamode>
- nic.umass.edu 128.119.166.14
+ * Battery and Info Look: <URL:http://www-cdf.fnal.gov/~sthrlnd/emacs/>
-Look under pub/contrib. As of March 23 1993, there are two relevant files:
+ * BS: <URL:http://www.geekware.de/software/emacs/index.html>
- pub/contrib/etalk0.6B.tar.Z --- sources of the talk system
- pub/contrib/egames0.6B.tar.Z --- more game-support files
+ * Calculator: <URL:http://www.barzilay.org/misc/calculator.el>
-We don't know whether this can use the additional features in GNU talk.

+* Packages and add-ons not bundled with Emacs
