Emacs for Windows NT and Windows 95
|
|
|
|
This directory contains support for compiling and running GNU Emacs on
|
|
Windows NT and Windows 95. This port supports all of the major
|
|
functionality of the Unix version, including subprocesses, windowing
|
|
features (fonts, colors, scroll bars, multiple frames, etc.), and
|
|
networking support.
|
|
|
|
Precompiled distributions are also available; ftp to
|
|
|
|
ftp://ftp.cs.washington.edu/pub/ntemacs/latest
|
|
|
|
for the latest precompiled distributions.
|
|
|
|
* Preliminaries
|
|
|
|
To compile Emacs, you will need a Microsoft C compiler package. For
|
|
NT, this can be any of the SDK compilers from NT 3.1 and up, Microsoft
|
|
Visual C++ for NT (versions 1.0 and up), or Microsoft Visual C++
|
|
(versions 2.0 and up). For Windows 95, this can be Microsoft Visual
|
|
C++ versions 2.0 and up.
|
|
|
|
* Building and installing
|
|
|
|
See the INSTALL file in this directory for detailed instructions on
|
|
building and installing Emacs on your system.
|
|
|
|
* Further information
|
|
|
|
If you have access to the World Wide Web, I would recommend pointing
|
|
your favorite web browser to the document (if you haven't already):
|
|
|
|
http://www.cs.washington.edu/homes/voelker/ntemacs.html
|
|
|
|
This web document serves as a FAQ and a source for further information
|
|
about the port and related software packages.
|
|
|
|
There is also a mailing list for discussing issues related to this
|
|
port of Emacs. For information about the list, send a message to
|
|
ntemacs-users-request@cs.washington.edu with the word "info" in the
|
|
*body* of the message. To subscribe to the list, send a message to
|
|
the same address with the word "subscribe" in the body of the message;
|
|
similarly, to unsubscribe from the list, send a message with the word
|
|
"unsubscribe" in the message body.
|
|
|
|
You are also always welcome to send me mail directly. If you don't
|
|
hear from me immediately, however, don't worry; it sometimes takes me
|
|
a few days (or longer) to get to all of my mail regarding Emacs.
|
|
|
|
* Reporting bugs
|
|
|
|
If you encounter bugs in this port of Emacs, first check the FAQ on
|
|
the web page above to see if the bug is already known and if there are
|
|
any workarounds. If not, then I would like to hear about it; either
|
|
send a bug report to the mailing list, or to me directly (I would
|
|
recommend sending to the list first).
|
|
|
|
Enjoy.
