| 1 How to setup VM: | |
| 2 | |
| 3 0) Look at the Makefile and change the values of EMACS_VERSION, | |
| 4 EMACS, INFODIR, LISPDIR, and PIXMAPDIR. If they are not right for your | |
| 5 system, change them. | |
| 6 | |
| 7 Note that version 18 of Emacs is no longer supported. VM may | |
| 8 or may not work under v18. | |
| 9 | |
| 10 1) Do one of these: | |
| 11 `make'. | |
| 12 `make vm.info' to build the Info online help document. | |
| 13 `make all' to make everything. | |
| 14 Ignore the compiler warnings. | |
| 15 | |
| 16 2) Put all the .elc files into a Lisp directory that Emacs knows | |
| 17 about. (see load-path). | |
| 18 | |
| 19 3) If you're using XEmacs 19.12 and you want toolbar support, | |
| 20 make a directory called `vm' in the XEmacs `etc' directory. | |
| 21 Copy the files in pixmaps directory into the directory you | |
| 22 just created. VM will look for the pixmap there by default. | |
| 23 | |
| 24 Alternately you can put the pixmap files in any directory you | |
| 25 want or just leave them where they are. Be sure to point the | |
| 26 variable vm-toolbar-pixmap-directory at the direrctory where | |
| 27 you put the files. | |
| 28 | |
| 29 4) If you built the Info document, copy the file vm.info file into | |
| 30 the Emacs' info directory under the name "vm". Edit the "dir" | |
| 31 file in that directory and add a menu entry for VM, if it's | |
| 32 not in there already. | |
| 33 | |
| 34 5) Put these lines in your .emacs file if they aren't there | |
| 35 already: | |
| 36 | |
| 37 (autoload 'vm "vm" "Start VM on your primary inbox." t) | |
| 38 (autoload 'vm-other-frame "vm" "Like `vm' but starts in another frame." t) | |
| 39 (autoload 'vm-visit-folder "vm" "Start VM on an arbitrary folder." t) | |
| 40 (autoload 'vm-visit-virtual-folder "vm" "Visit a VM virtual folder." t) | |
| 41 (autoload 'vm-mode "vm" "Run VM major mode on a buffer" t) | |
| 42 (autoload 'vm-mail "vm" "Send a mail message using VM." t) | |
| 43 (autoload 'vm-submit-bug-report "vm" "Send a bug report about VM." t) | |
| 44 | |
| 45 You're now ready to use VM. C-h i should start up the Emacs Info | |
| 46 system and if you've installed the Info document properly you can | |
| 47 use the online documentation to teach yourself how to use VM. | |
| 48 (Note: the Info document is currently only completely accurate for | |
| 49 version 4 of VM.) | |
| 50 | |
| 51 Please use M-x vm-submit-bug-report to report bugs. The bug report | |
| 52 will be sent to bug-vm@uunet.uu.net and be gatewayed from there to | |
| 53 gnu.emacs.vm.bug. | |
| 54 | |
| 55 The latest version of VM can usually be found at ftp.uu.net in | |
| 56 the networking/mail/vm directory. |
