This requires xemacs-packages which be will committed next. Xemacs now allows the user to maintain packages himself. See DESCR. This supersedes PR 11618, which was based on an older release. This commit was blasted over a repository copy of xemacs20, which is why there are so many changes. Submitted by: Michael Elbel (me@freebsd.org)

XEmacs is a self-documenting, customizable, extensible real-time
|
|
display editor.
|
|
|
|
Users new to XEmacs will be able to use basic features fairly rapidly
|
|
by studying the tutorial and using the self-documentation features.
|
|
XEmacs also has an extensive interactive manual browser. It is easily
|
|
extensible since its editing commands are written in Lisp.
|
|
|
|
XEmacs's many special packages handle mail reading (RMail) and sending
|
|
(Mail), outline editing (Outline), compiling (Compile), running
|
|
subshells within Emacs windows (Shell), running a Lisp read-eval-print
|
|
loop (Lisp-Interaction-Mode), automated psychotherapy (Doctor :-) and
|
|
many more. There is a WWW browsing mode written fully in elisp
|
|
that looks and behaves much like the netscape WWW browser.
|
|
|
|
XEmacs has similar functionality to GNU Emacs. It uses a different
|
|
display model, including support for Motif menu and scroll bars and the
|
|
ability to run as a widget inside other applications. Many people say
|
|
it looks nicer than GNU Emacs.
