|
|
|
5 Note that for most of the following options, you can explicitly enable
|
|
380
|
6 them using `--OPTION=yes' and explicitly disable them using `--OPTION=no'.
|
|
215
|
7 This is especially useful for auto-detected options.
|
|
276
|
8 The option `--without-FEATURE' is a synonym for `--with-FEATURE=no'.

272
|
10 Options marked with a (*) are auto-detected.
|
|
215
|
11
|
|
|
12 Use colons (or quoted spaces) to separate directory names in option
|
|
|
13 values which are PATHs (i.e. lists of directories).

|
127 The first option can be `none' or `all' to change

|
128 the default which is: native,esd
|
|
412

|
|
|
146 which is searched before the installation modules.
|
|
215
|
147 --package-path=PATH Directories to search for packages to dump with xemacs.
|
|
388
|
148 PATH splits into three parts separated by double
|
|
|
149 colons (::), an early, a late, and a last part,
|
|
274
|
150 corresponding to their position in the various
|
|
380
|
151 system paths: The early part is always first,
|
|
|
152 the late part somewhere in the middle, and the
|
|
274
|
153 last part at the very back.
|
|
|
154 Only the late part gets seen at dump time.
|
|
380
|
155 If PATH has only one component, that component
|
|
274
|
156 is late.
|
|
|
157 If PATH has two components, the first is
|
|
|
158 early, the second is late.
|
|
388
|
159 --infodir=DIR Directory to install XEmacs Info manuals and dir in.
|

|
|
|
165 your-house-collapses-and-your-wife-goes-away,
|
|
|
166 portable dumper.
|
|
215
|
167
|
|
|
168 Internationalization options:
|
|
|
169
|
|
388
|
170 --with-mule Compile with Mule (MUlti-Lingual Emacs) support,
|
|
|
171 needed to support non-Latin-1 (including Asian)
|
|
|
172 languages.
|
|
|
173 --with-xim=xlib Compile with support for X input methods,
|
|
|
174 --with-xim=motif (*) Used in conjunction with Mule support.
|
|
|
175 Use either raw Xlib to provide XIM support, or
|
|
|
176 the Motif XmIm* routines (when available).
|
|
|
177 NOTE: On some systems bugs in X11's XIM support
|
|
|
178 will cause XEmacs to crash, so by default,
|
|
|
179 no XIM support is compiled in, unless running
|
|
|
180 on Solaris and the XmIm* routines are detected.
|
|
|
181 --with-canna (*) Compile with support for Canna (a Japanese input method
|
|
|
182 used in conjunction with Mule support).
|
|
|
183 --with-wnn (*) Compile with support for WNN (a multi-language input
|
|
|
184 method used in conjunction with Mule support).
|
|
412
|
185 --with-wnn6 (*) Compile with support for the comercial package WNN
|
|
|
186 version 6
|
|
388
|
187 --with-i18n3 Compile with I18N level 3 (support for message
|
|
|
188 translation). This doesn't currently work.
|
|
|
189 --with-xfs Compile with XFontSet support for bilingual menubar.
|
|
|
190 Can't use this option with --with-xim=motif or xlib.
|
|
|
191 And should have --with-menubars=lucid.
|
|
215
|
192
|
|
|
193
|
|
|
194 Debugging options:
|
|
|
195
|
|
388
|
196 --debug Compile with support for debugging XEmacs.
|
|
|
197 (Causes code-size increase and little loss of speed.)
|
|
221
|
198 --error-checking=TYPE[,TYPE]...
|
|
388
|
199 Compile with internal error-checking added.
|
|
|
200 Causes noticeable loss of speed. Valid types
|
|
|
201 are extents, bufpos, malloc, gc, typecheck.
|
|
|
202 --error-checking=none Disable all internal error-checking (the default).
|
|
|
203 --error-checking=all Enable all internal error-checking.
|
|
|
204 --memory-usage-stats Compile with additional code to allow you to
|
|
|
205 determine what XEmacs's memory is being used
|
|
|
206 for. Causes a small code increase but no loss
|
|
|
207 of speed. Normally enabled when --debug is given.
|
|
|
208 --no-doc-file Don't rebuild the DOC file unless it's explicitly
|
|
|
209 deleted. Only use during development. (It speeds
|
|
|
210 up the compile-run-test cycle.)
|
|
|
211 --use-union-type Enable or disable use of a union, instead of an
|
|
|
212 int, for the fundamental Lisp_Object type; this
|
|
|
213 provides stricter type-checking. Only works with
|
|
|
214 some systems and compilers.
|
|
392
|
215 --with-quantify Add support for performance debugging using Quantify.
|
|
|
216 --with-purify Add support for memory debugging using Purify.
|
|
215
|
217
|
|
|
218
|
|
|
219 Other options:
|
|
|
220
|
|
388
|
221 --rel-alloc Use the relocating allocator (default for this option
|
|
|
222 is system-dependent).
|
|
|
223 --with-dlmalloc Control usage of Doug Lea malloc on systems that have
|
|
|
224 it in the standard C library (default is to use it if
|
|
|
225 it is available).
|
|
392
|
226 --with-system-malloc Force use of the system malloc, rather than GNU malloc.
|
|
|
227 --with-debug-malloc Use the debugging malloc package.
|
|
388
|
228 --with-clash-detection Use lock files to detect multiple edits of the same
|
|
412
|
229 file. The default is to not do clash detection.
|
|
388
|
230 --lockdir=DIR The directory to put clash detection files in, such as
|
|
|
231 `/var/lock/emacs'.
|
|
|
232 Defaults to `${statedir}/xemacs/lock'.
|
|
215
|
233
|
|
269
|
234 You may also specify any of the `path' variables found in Makefile.in,
|
|
420
|
235 including --bindir, --libdir, --docdir, --lispdir, --sitelispdir,
|
|
|
236 --datadir, --infodir, --mandir and so on. Note that we recommend
|
|
|
237 against explicitly setting any of these variables. See the INSTALL
|
|
|
238 file for a complete list plus the reasons we advise not changing them.
|
|
215
|
239
|
|
|
240 If successful, configure leaves its status in config.status. If
|
|
|
241 unsuccessful after disturbing the status quo, it removes config.status.
|
|
|
242
|
|
272
|
243 The configure script also recognizes some environment variables, each
|
|
412
|
244 of which is equivalent to a corresponding configure flag. A specified
|
|
|
245 configure flag always overrides the environment variable.
|
|
243
|
246
|
|
412
|
247 envvar configure flag
