+### Commentary:
+
+## This file copies a single lisp file into an XEmacs package hierarchy and
+## performs the necessary magic so that it will be autoloaded at the next
+## dump.
+
+## Parameters:
+## $1 -- Full path to an XEmacsen later than 20.3
+## $2 -- Full path to a lisp package tarball to install
+## $3 -- Full path to a lisp directory in an XEmacs package hierarchy
+## This directory will be created if it does not exist.
+## NOTE: the directory name should *not* end in a trailing slash
+
+
+### Code:
+
+XEMACS="$1" # Not used at present
+LISP_FILE="$2" # Should be a binary package tarball
+DEST_DIR="$3" # Should be a top level package directory
+
+# Test for valid XEmacs executable and valid input file
+if [ ! -f "${LISP_FILE}" -o ! -x "${XEMACS}" ]; then
+ exit 1
+fi
+
+# Test for destination directory, creating if necessary
+test -d "${DEST_DIR}" || mkdir "${DEST_DIR}"
+test -d "${DEST_DIR}" || exit 1;
+
+# Very simple minded extraction for the first cut
+# We'll get more sophisticated later
+cd "${DEST_DIR}"
+gunzip -c "${LISP_FILE}" | tar xvf -
+
+# Need to refresh the info/dir file, I don't know how to do that.
+
+exit 0
