Edit LISPDIR
and EMACS
in `Makefile'.
Set the Emacs's command name to EMACS
.
Set package installation directory to LISPDIR
.
Then, please execute following commands.
% make % make install
Destination directory is auto-probed if you leave LISPDIR
in `Makefile' as is. (That is, leave it as `NONE')
If you are using an Emacs variant which does not merge specified directory
to load-path
(e.g. Mule 2.3 based on Emacs 19.28),
then you will see the error message:
Cannot open load file: mime-setup
In this case, either add destination directories of custom, APEL, FLIM
and SEMI to environmental variable @env{EMACSLOADPATH}, or define
load-path
in `WL-CFG' in extracted directory.
If you want to use BBDB, then the necessary modules are byte-compiled
and installed when BBDB directory is added to load-path
.
See section bbdb.el.
Contents of the file `WL-CFG' is loaded under installation if a file
with that name exists in extracted directory. You can use `WL-CFG' to
configure load-path
to extra packages such as SEMI if needed.
If you want to specify the install directory of Wanderlust related files, then set following variables in `WL-CFG'
WL_PREFIX
LISPDIR
.
WL modules include `wl*.el', `wl*.elc' files.
ELMO_PREFIX
LISPDIR
.
ELMO modules include `elmo*.el', `elmo*.elc' files.
Default value of WL_PREFIX
and ELMO_PREFIX
are `wl'.
If you want to install ELMO related files under a sub-directory such as "elmo" then add following to `WL-CFG':
(setq ELMO_PREFIX "elmo")
It is possible to install Wanderlust as one of packages of XEmacs (21.0 or later). Configuration for autoload and icon-path in local `~/.emacs' files are no longer necessary, if you install Wanderlust as a package.
Follow the next example to install Wanderlust as an XEmacs package.
% vi Makefile % make package % make install-package
package directory is auto-probed, if SEMI is installed.
(you can also specify it with PACKAGEDIR
in `Makefile')
If wl and elmo directories are defined in load-path
, then
byte-compilation and installation are not necessary to start Wanderlust.
For example, if package is extracted in `~/work', Wanderlust can be
invoked with following setting in `~/.emacs'.
(add-to-list 'load-path "~/work/wl-version/wl") (add-to-list 'load-path "~/work/wl-version/elmo")
Manual is described in Info format. Please do following.
% make info % make install-info
If you install Wanderlust as a XEmacs package, Info file is already installed too, so there are no need of these commands.
Manual directory is automatically detected. Of course, it can be
configured by INFODIR
in `Makefile'.
