A Collection of Ridiculously Useful eXtensions for Emacs. crux bundles a few useful interactive commands to enhance your overall Emacs experience.

Available on all major package.el community maintained repos - MELPA Stable and MELPA repos.

MELPA Stable is recommended as it has the latest stable version. MELPA has a development snapshot for users who don't mind breakage but don't want to run from a git checkout.

You can install crux using the following command:

M-x package-install [RET] crux [RET]

or if you'd rather keep it in your dotfiles:

(unless (package-installed-p 'crux)
  (package-refresh-contents)
  (package-install 'crux))

If the installation doesn't work try refreshing the package list:

M-x package-refresh-contents
