1 Building and Installing Xemacs
|
|

|
|
|
4 You need a compiler package to build and install Emacs on NT or Win95.
|
|
|
5
|
|
|
6 This is an extremely early release. Any help I can provide I will do so.
|

|
|
|
8 1. You need to extract the nt subdirectory from the nt.tar file.
|
|
|
9 2. You need to compile the lcc c preprocessor in the nt/cpp directory.
|
|
|
10 3. Get and compile MIT X11R6.1. Well I use 6.1, later versions will probably
|
|
|
11 work as well.
|
|
|
12 4. Edit the xemacs.mak Makefile and ensure variables point to the correct place.
|
|
|
13 5. Create the obj subdirectory.
|
|
|
14 6. copy the files from nt/src into src/.
|
|
|
15 7. patch the original source files with the src.diffs file.
|
|
|
16 8. Run nmake using xemacs.mak
|
|
|
17 9. Manually run the resulting temacs executable to create xemacs.

20 Problems:
|
|
|
21 - Haven't got rid of some symbol problems which may be causing problems.
|
|

|
|
|
23 trying to work out where it should be removed.
|
|
|
