 Emacs provides a standard way to distribute Emacs Lisp code to users.  A
 “package” is a collection of one or more files, formatted and bundled in
 such a way that users can easily download, install, uninstall, and
 upgrade it.
 
    The following sections describe how to create a package, and how to
 put it in a “package archive” for others to download.  
 (emacs)Packages, for a description of user-level features of the
