auto-install-el for Debian -------------------------- This is Debian package of auto-install-el. Emacs Lisp files are put in /usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/auto-install instead of /usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/@PACKAGE@ Installation: (1) And put the following in your ~/.emacs startup file: (require 'auto-install) (2) Add this to your ~/.emacs to optionally specify a download directory: (setq auto-install-directory "~/.emacs.d/auto-install/") If you don't set this, "~/.emacs.d/auto-install/" will be used as the default, and will be created as needed. (3) Optionally, if your computer is always connected Internet when Emacs start up, I recommend you add below to your ~/.emacs, to update package name when start up: (auto-install-update-emacswiki-package-name t) And above setup is not necessary, because AutoInstall will automatically update package name when you just first call `auto-install-from-emacswiki', above setup just avoid *delay* when you first call `auto-install-from-emacswiki'. (4) I recommend you add below to your ~/.emacs for install-elisp users: (auto-install-compatibility-setup) This command `defalias'es `install-elisp', `install-elisp-from-emacswiki' and `install-elisp-from-gist' to `auto-install' ones. (5) If you want to use proxy server, set `url-proxy-services'. For example: (setq url-proxy-services '(("http" . "localhost:8339"))) -- Takaya Yamashita Tue, 15 Jun 2010 23:16:42 +0900
