25 ;; This package provides language bindings for the D-Bus API. D-Bus
26 ;; is a message bus system, a simple way for applications to talk to
27 ;; one another. See <http://dbus.freedesktop.org/> for details.
29 ;; Low-level language bindings are implemented in src/dbusbind.c.

33 ;; D-Bus support in the Emacs core can be disabled with configuration
34 ;; option "--without-dbus". Declare used subroutines and variables.
