A better fix is to make it easy for Emacs to show the README (assuming it's included in the tarball). I think we've discussed this in the past and there had been some progress, but there's probably more to do. > Also, a README that says "it's like JQuery but far less useful" is > likely to chase away any users --- yes I understand the need for > humility and to not over-promise but this is perhaps going a bit to far > --- why not try to at least have the goal of making it as useful as > JQuery? Alternatively just write an elisp wrapper that calls JQuery:-) More importantly, it should also be understandable by someone who doesn't know what is JQuery. Stefan
