Re: propose adding Icicles to Emacs

[Richard Stallman]

    Icicles extends `completing-read', `read-file-name' etc. in various ways. It
    provides users with yet another way to complete minibuffer input (like ido,
    ibuffer,...). I propose adding it to Emacs in a way similar to how ido and
    ibuffer are offered: for optional use.

Does Icicles provide all its features in a modular way, by extending
the completion mechanism?

    * Multi-commands: Define a command that acts on one foobar,
      and be able to use it also on multiple foobars in a single
      invocation.

How is that implemented?

Does Icicles do advice?
