Severity: wishlist
Owner: Sean Whitton <spwhitton@spwhitton.name>

  Version         : 1.9.1

  Description     : Emacs incremental completion and selection narrowing framework

An alternative to Ido, very popular among Emacs users.  Upstream
description:

    Helm is incremental completion and selection narrowing framework for
    Emacs. It will help steer you in the right direction when you're
    looking for stuff in Emacs (like buffers, files, etc).
    
    Helm is a fork of anything.el originally written by Tamas Patrovic and
    can be considered to be its successor. Helm sets out to clean up the
    legacy code in anything.el and provide a cleaner, leaner and more
    modular tool, that's not tied in the trap of backward compatibility.

I intend to maintain this as part of the pkg-emacsen team.
