1 PCL-CVS requires parts of the Elib library, version 1.0 or later. Elib
2 can be downloaded from either the primary GNU FTP site at
3 <URL:ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/emacs/>, or from any number of other
4 mirror sites. Get Elib, and install it, before proceeding. It's
5 probably also available from where you downloaded PCL-CVS, including
6 from <URL:ftp://rum.cs.yale.edu/pub/monnier/pcl-cvs/elib-1.0.tar.gz>.
9 Installation of the program
10 ===========================
12 -1. Download and install the Elib library (if it's not done yet).
14 0. If you're using XEmacs, you probably need Emacs' easy-mmode.el that
15 you can find at <URL:ftp://rum.cs.yale.edu/pub/monnier/pcl-cvs/>.
16 Copy it into the pcl-cvs source dir (it's only needed for compiling
17 the .el files). Also, don't forget to first install the Elib library.
19 1. Edit the file `Makefile' to reflect the situation at your site.
20 The only things you have to change is the definition of `lispdir'
21 (usually `/usr/local/share/emacs/site-lisp' or something similar)
22 and `infodir' (usually `/usr/local/(share/)info' or similar). The
23 compiled elisp files will be copied to `lispdir', and the info
26 2. Make sure you have already installed the Elib library.
28 3. Type `make install' in the source directory. This will
29 byte-compile all `.el' files and copy all the `.elc' files into the
30 directory you specified in step 1. It will also copy the info
31 files (and add a corresponding entry to the info-dir file if
32 install-info can be found).
34 If you want to install the `.el' files as well, just type
37 If you only want to create the compiled elisp files, but don't
38 want to install them, you can type `make elcfiles' instead.
40 4. Edit the file `site-start.el' (or default.el) in your emacs lisp
41 directory ((i.e. the one specified above) and enter the
42 contents of the file `pcl-cvs-startup.el' into it. It contains
43 a couple of `autoload's that facilitates the use of pcl-cvs.
44 Alternatively, you can just use `make install_startup'.
46 5. If you already had copied the pcl-cvs.startup.el file to your
47 site-start.el, you might want to check if it is still correct since
48 autoloads might have been added/removed.
50 How to make typeset documentation
51 =================================
53 If you have TeX installed at your site, you can make a typeset
54 manual from `pcl-cvs.texi' by typing ``make pcl-cvs.dvi''. If you
55 prefer a postscript version of this file, just use ``make pcl-cvs.ps''.
