4See the end of the file for license conditions.
5
6The easiest way to add more features to your Emacs is to use the command
7M-x list-packages. This contacts the server at <URL:http://elpa.gnu.org>,
8where many Emacs Lisp packages are stored. These are distributed
9separately from Emacs itself for reasons of space, etc. You can browse
10the resulting *Packages* buffer to see what is available, and then
11Emacs can automatically download and install the packages that you
12select. See the section "Emacs Lisp Packages" in the Emacs manual
13for more details.
14
15Below we describe some GNU Emacs programs and resources that are
16maintained by other people. Some of these may become part of the
17Emacs distribution, or GNU ELPA, in the future. Others we unfortunately
18can't distribute, even though they are free software, because we lack
19legal papers for copyright purposes.
20
21Also listed are sites where development versions of some packages
22distributed with Emacs may be found.
23
24It is difficult to keep this file up-to-date, and it only lists a fraction
25of the Emacs modes that are available. If you are interested in
26a particular feature, then after checking Emacs itself and GNU ELPA,
27a web search is often the best way to find results.
28
29* The gnu-emacs-sources mailing list
30 <URL:https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnu-emacs-sources>
31 which is gatewayed to the gnu.emacs.sources newsgroup (although the
32 connection between the two can be unreliable) is an official
33 place where people can post or announce their extensions to Emacs.
34
35* The `Emacs Lisp List' at
36 <URL:http://www.damtp.cam.ac.uk/user/sje30/emacs/ell.html> has pointers
37 to sources of a large number of packages. Unfortunately, at the time
38 of writing it seems to no longer be updating.
39
40* emacswiki.org
41 The Emacs Wiki has an area for storing elisp files
42 <URL:http://www.emacswiki.org/cgi-bin/wiki/ElispArea>.
43
44* WikEmacs
45 <URL:http://wikemacs.org> is an alternative wiki for Emacs.
46
47* Emacs slides and tutorials can be found here:
48 <URL:http://web.psung.name/emacs/>
49
50* Maintenance versions of some packages distributed with Emacs
51
52You might find bug-fixes or enhancements in these places.
53In many cases, however, development of these packages has shifted to Emacs,
54so you will find the latest version in Emacs.

75
76* Packages and add-ons not bundled with Emacs
77
78Various major packages or useful additions aren't distributed as part of
79Emacs for various reasons, sometimes because their authors haven't made
80a copyright assignment to the FSF. Some of them may be integrated in
81the future.
82
83Your operating system distribution may include several of these as optional
84packages that you can install.

363*** Gnus can't make contact with the specified host for nntp.
364
365This typically happens on Suns and other systems that use shared
366libraries. The cause is that the site has installed a version of the
367shared library which uses a name server--but has not installed a
368similar version of the unshared library which Emacs uses.
369
370The result is that most programs, using the shared library, work with
371the nameserver, but Emacs does not.
372
373The fix is to install an unshared library that corresponds to what you
374installed in the shared library, and then relink Emacs.

376If you have already installed the name resolver in the file libresolv.a,
