Sync up some files to FSF 21.1. Copy over all charset definitions from FSF 21.1, convert them to our format, and stick them in the relevant files. Eventually we will actually be able to dump these files (though they may not quite work). autoload.el: Support defun*, defmacro*. mule/mule-composite.el, mule/mule-composite-stub.el: New file, stubs for nonexistent composition funs/vars. mule/viet-chars.el, dumped-lisp.el: Account for these changes. font.el, mouse.el, msw-font-menu.el, printer.el, startup.el: fix warnings.

More Neat Stuff for your Emacs			-*-Outline-*-

This file describes GNU Emacs programs and resources that are maintained
by other people.  Some of these may become part of the Emacs distribution
in the future.

* The LCD archive

There is a large collection of Emacs Lisp code available for FTP at
archive.cis.ohio-state.edu; it is actively maintained by Dave Brennan
<brennan@hal.com> and Dave Sill <de5@ornl.gov>.

To get started using this archive, do:

	ftp archive.cis.ohio-state.edu

Once you're in FTP, do

	cd pub/gnu/emacs/elisp-archive
	bin
	get lispdir.el.Z
	get LCD-datafile.Z

and exit.  Then do:

	compress -d *.Z

The lispdir.el package will help you search for useful packages in the
LCD-datafile, which is a list of the archive constants.  It will even
fetch them for you on command.

* Eric Ludlam's etalk system

Eric Ludlam has written a C program and Emacs Lisp code to do Internet talk
through an Emacs window.  The package also includes Emacs Lisp code which
assists you in using talk to play a number of different interactive games.

This system seems to be quite nicely put together and is well documented
with a texinfo file that you can integrate into Emacs's own on-line help.
It's too large and specialized to include in the Emacs distribution, though.

Sources of this system are available for FTP at

	nic.umass.edu		128.119.166.14

Look under pub/contrib.  As of March 23 1993, there are two relevant files:

	pub/contrib/etalk0.6B.tar.Z	--- sources of the talk system
	pub/contrib/egames0.6B.tar.Z	--- more game-support files

We don't know whether this can use the additional features in GNU talk.
