-;;; Packages
-;; For a long time i used use-package to manage emacs package configuration.  Over time, i decided it was a bit too magic for me.  The syntax is quite different to everything else in the configuration, and most of the options i was using were fairly simple.
-
-;; I had a very brief excursion into using ~package-vc-install~ to manage packages directly from source, but i found this was too fragile, especially without relying on use-package.  For now, i've modified a little defun from acdw i used for that purpose to simply install packages using package.el.

 ;;; Modern keybindings
 ;; A lot of people say that you get used to emacs keybindings over time, and this is true.  But i find it hard to maintain two sets of keybindings in my head: those for emacs, and those for everything else.  So i think that it's best to make emacs use the same bindings as everything else.  For now, we do that with wakib mode.
