EmacsWiki: Epackage (original) (raw)

Description

Epackage refers to two terms:

• It is a DVCS repository with a suitable structure to implement the DELPS specification. In short: an Emacs extension (some `file.el`) wrapped in a Git repository, made publicly available e.g. through http://github.com and announced in a specific central Sources List, the “Yellow pages”.
• It also refers to a reference implementation of the DELPS: epackage.el. With it, you can download, install, remove and manage packages in a similar manner to ELPA package manager.

See DELPS page and its links for more information about how to make epackages and where to get epackage.el.
