AEIS is «Another Emacs Initialization Set»

Developers preview. Not for users yet.

AEIS purpose is ordering a chaos of emacs.d scripts and extensions loaded and installed by hands or with package-managers. It's not a kind of a «starter kit» bloated with packages unused by you. AEIS just offers skeleton for further Emacs customizing.

Planned features

• API for simple installing/deinstalling/enabling/disabling init scripts for installed packages [in progress]
• UI for control init-system
• support for different Emacs versions for single .emacs.d
• caching of init-d starter scripts in one big file [done]
