2 The subdirectories of this directory contain source code for the XEmacs
|
|
3 facilities written in Emacs Lisp. *.el files are Elisp source, and *.elc
|
|
4 files are byte-compiled versions of the corresponding *.el files.
|
|
5 Byte-compiled files are architecture-independent.
|
|
6
|
|
7 When XEmacs starts up, it adds all subdirectories of the site-lisp
|
|
8 directory. The site-lisp directory normally exists only in
|
|
9 installation trees. For more information about the site-lisp
|
|
10 directory see the NEWS file.
|
|
11
|
|
12 After XEmacs adds all subdirectories of the site-lisp directory, it
|
|
13 adds all subdirectories of this directory to the load-path (the list
|
|
14 of directories to be searched when loading files.) To speed up this
|
|
15 process, this directory has been rearranged to have very few files at
|
|
16 the top-level, so that emacs doesn't have to stat() several hundred
|
|
17 files to find the dozen or so which are actually subdirectories.
|
|
18
|
|
19 Directories whose names begin with "-" or "." are not added to the default
|
|
20 load-path.
|
|
21
|
|
22 The only files which remain at top-level are those which you might
|
|
23 reasonably want to alter when installing or customizing XEmacs at your
|
|
24 site. The files which may appear at top level are:
|
|
25
|
|
26 paths.el You may need to change the default pathnames here,
|
|
27 but probably not. This is loaded before XEmacs is
|
|
28 dumped.
|
|
29
|
|
30 site-init.el To pre-load additional libraries into XEmacs and dump
|
|
31 them in the executable, load them from this file.
|
|
32
|
|
33 site-load.el This is like site-init.el, but if you want the
|
|
34 docstrings of your preloaded libraries to be kept in
|
|
35 the DOC file instead of in the executable, you should
|
|
36 load them from this file instead. To do this, you must
|
|
37 also cause them to be scanned when the DOC file is
|
|
38 generated by editing ../src/Makefile.in.in and
|
|
39 rerunning configure.
|
|
40
|
|
41 site-start.el This is loaded each time XEmacs starts up, before the
|
|
42 user's .emacs file.
|
|
43
|
|
44 default.el This is loaded each time XEmacs starts up, after the
|
|
45 user's .emacs file, unless .emacs sets the variable
|
|
46 inhibit-default-init to t.
|
|
47
|
|
48 version.el This contains the version information for XEmacs.
|
|
49
|
|
50
|
|
51 These are the main subdirectories:
|
|
52
|
|
53 prim Fundamental XEmacs functionality. Some of this is
|
|
54 pre-dumped with XEmacs, some is autoloaded.
|
|
55
|
|
56 utils Various utility functions that some other XEmacs
|
|
57 packages build on. These are not user commands.
|
|
58
|
|
59 modes Text-editing and programming-language-sensitive modes.
|
|
60
|
|
61 emulators XEmacs can emulate a few different editors. These are
|
|
62 a bit more than what `modes' generally are.
|
|
63
|
|
64 term Terminal-specific customization files. When XEmacs
|
|
65 starts, it checks the $TERM environment variable to
|
|
66 see what type of terminal the user is running on, and
|
|
67 loads a file named $TERM.el from this directory, if
|
|
68 that file exists.
|
|
69
|
|
70 vms VMS-specific code.
|
|
71
|
|
72 x11 X Window System-specific code.
|
|
73
|
|
74 games Various ways to waste time.
|
|
75
|
|
76 packages Random other utilities that are not primarily about
|
|
77 editing text. For example, code for automatically
|
|
78 uncompressing .Z files would be here. This is an
|
|
79 `everything else' sort of directory.
|
|
80
|
|
81 Some packages are fairly large; those have been given their own directories:
|
|
82
|
|
83 bytecomp The XEmacs-lisp compiler.

|
84
|
|
85 calendar A calendar and appointment manager.
