26 ;; Keeping track of rapidly developing software is a tough thing to
27 ;; do, especially if you want to have co-dependent packages which all
28 ;; move at different rates.
30 ;; This library provides a framework for specifying version numbers
31 ;; and (as side effect) have a flexible way of getting a desired feature set.
33 ;; If you would like to use this package to satisfy dependency replace this:
39 ;; (require 'inversion)
40 ;; (inversion-require 'spiffy "1.0")
42 ;; If you feel the need to not throw errors, you can do this instead:
44 ;; (let ((err (inversion-test 'spiffy "1.0")))
45 ;; (if err (your-stuff-here)))
47 ;; If you new package (2.0) needs to make sure a load file from your
48 ;; package is compatible, use this test:
50 ;; (if (not (inversion-reverse-test 'spiffy version-from-file))
56 ;; If you would like to make inversion optional, do this:
58 ;; (or (require 'inversion nil t)
59 ;; (defun inversion-test (p v)
60 ;; (string= v (symbol-value
61 ;; (intern-soft (concat (symbol-string p) "-version"))))))
63 ;; Or modify to specify `inversion-require' instead.
66 ;; Offer to download newer versions of a package.
