Bug 484086 – app-emacs/emacs-tiny-tools - a collection of packages (extensions) and libraries designed to be OS and X/Emacs platform independent

• Status: CONFIRMED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description José Romildo Malaquias 2013-09-07 11:23:49 UTC]

Please, add Emacs Tiny Tools to portage.

Emacs Tiny Tools is a collection of packages (extensions) and libraries designed to be OS and X/Emacs platform independent. They include tools to configure load-path automatically, jump to URLs, easy text delete, mail completion, and many more utilities (50+).

The Emacs team decided long time ago that we won't add such collections.
(We were discussing "emacs-goodies" at the time, see bug 180170.)

I'll be happy though to add single tools from that package, so feel free to file one or more separate bugs for the things that you need.

I am particularly interested in tinyprocmail-mode at the moment. So I filled a new bug for it:

Reopening. The tools have too many interdependencies, so adding them as separate packages doesn't seem feasible.
