Basic Installation for An Introduction to Programming in Emacs Lisp version 2
==================
# To see the table of contents of the emacs-lisp-intro-2.00.tar.gz
# file, execute the following at your shell prompt:
tar -tzvf emacs-lisp-intro-2.00.tar.gz
# To uncompress and untar the file, execute the following:
tar -xzvf emacs-lisp-intro-2.00.tar.gz
# The file will untar into a subdirectory called emacs-lisp-intro-2.00
# That directory will contain the Texinfo source for the book, the
# Info files and various other files.
cd emacs-lisp-intro-2.00
# To create a DVI file that can be printed directly or converted
# to PostScript or PDF and then printed, execute the following:
./configure
make dvi
# To create an HTML file, execute the following
# (presumably you have already executed the `./configure' command
# before running `make dvi'; if not execute `./configure' now);
# this will place HTML files into a emacs-lisp-intro/ subdirectory:
makeinfo --html --verbose emacs-lisp-intro.texi
# To create a single, large HTML file in the current directory,
# use the --no-split option, like this:
makeinfo --html --no-split --verbose emacs-lisp-intro.texi
# At the time of writing, `makeinfo' version 4.0b creates HTML
# files with %20 in addresses instead of a space. Some
# browsers have difficulty following such references. In
# GNU Emacs, you can replace the occurrences of %20 with a
# command such as
# (replace-string "%20" " ")
# To create a single, large Info file in the current directory
# instead of the usual 16 smaller Info files, and also, to avoid
# indenting paragraphs, execute:
makeinfo --no-split --paragraph-indent=0 --verbose emacs-lisp-intro.texi
# To create a single, large Plain text file in the current
# directory, execute:
makeinfo --fill-column=70 --no-split --paragraph-indent=0 \
--verbose --no-headers --output=emacs-lisp-intro.txt emacs-lisp-intro.texi
