Description-en: install and manage elisp code for Emacs
Allows you to install and manage elisp code for Emacs. It supports lots of
differents types of sources and is able to 'install' them, 'update' them
and 'remove' them, but more importantly it will 'init' them for you.
.
That means it will care about requiring the 'features' you need, loading
the files, setting the 'Info' paths so that C-h i shows the new
documentation you now depend on, and finally call your own :after function
for you to setup the extension.
