This + distribution can be found on the ftp.gnu.org server and its mirrors: + + ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/emacs/windows/ + + This server contains other distributions, including the full Emacs + source distribution and the lisp source distribution, as well as older + releases of Emacs for Windows. + + Answers to frequently asked questions, and further information about + this port of GNU Emacs and related software packages can be found via + http: + + http://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/windows/ntemacs.html + +* Preliminaries + + Along with this file should be six subdirectories (bin, etc, info, + lisp, lock, site-lisp). Depending on which distribution you have + installed, the lisp subdirectory might contain both the lisp source + (*.el) and compiled lisp files (*.elc), or just the compiled lisp + files. If you don't have the lisp source files, you can obtain them + by downloading the lisp source distribution or the full source + distribution from the ftp site mentioned above. + +* Setting up Emacs + + To install Emacs, simply unpack all the files into a directory of your + choice, but note that you might encounter minor problems if there is a + space anywhere in the directory name. To complete the installation + process, you can optionally run the program addpm.exe in the bin + subdirectory. This will add some entries to the registry that tell + Emacs where to find its support files, and put an icon for Emacs in + the Start Menu under "Start -> Programs -> Gnu Emacs -> Emacs". + + Some users have reported that the Start Menu item is not created for + them. If this happens, just create your own shortcut to runemacs.exe, + eg. by dragging it on to the desktop or the Start button. + + Note that running addpm is now an optional step; Emacs is able to + locate all of its files without needing the information to be set in + the environment or the registry, although such settings will still be + obeyed if present. This is convenient for running Emacs on a machine + which disallows registry changes, or on which software should not be + installed. For instance, you can now run Emacs directly from a CD + without copying or installing anything on the machine itself. + +* Starting Emacs + + To run Emacs, simply select Emacs from the Start Menu, or invoke + runemacs.exe directly from Explorer or a command prompt. This will + start Emacs in its default GUI mode, ready to use. If you have never + used Emacs before, you should follow the tutorial at this point + (select Emacs Tutorial from the Help menu), since Emacs is quite + different from ordinary Windows applications in many respects. + + If you want to use Emacs in tty or character mode within a command + window, you can start it by typing "emacs -nw" at the command prompt. + (Obviously, you need to ensure that the Emacs bin subdirectory is in + your PATH first, or specify the path to emacs.exe.) The -nw + (non-windowed) mode of operation is most useful if you have a telnet + server on your machine, allowing you to run Emacs remotely. + +* EXE files included + + Emacs comes with the following executable files in the bin directory. + + + emacs.exe - The main Emacs executable. As this is designed to run + as both a text-mode application (emacs -nw) and as a GUI application, + it will pop up a command prompt window if run directly from Explorer. + + + runemacs.exe - A wrapper for running Emacs as a GUI application + without popping up a command prompt window. + + + emacsclient.exe - A command-line client program that can + communicate with a running Emacs process. See the `Emacs Server' + node of the Emacs manul. + + + emacsclientw.exe - A version of emacsclient that does not open + a command-line window. + + + addpm.exe - A basic installer that creates Start Menu icons for Emacs. + Running this is optional. + + + cmdproxy.exe - Used internally by Emacs to work around problems with + the native shells in various versions of Windows. + + + ctags.exe, etags.exe - Tools for generating tag files. See the + `Tags' node of the Emacs manual. + + + ebrowse.exe - A tool for generating C++ browse information. See the + `Ebrowse' manual. + + + ddeclient.exe - A tool for interacting with DDE servers. + + + hexl.exe - A tool for converting files to hex dumps. See the + `Editing Binary Files' node of the Emacs manual. + + + movemail.exe - A helper application for safely moving mail from + a mail spool or POP server to a local user mailbox. See the + `Movemail' node of the Emacs manual. + + + digest-doc.exe, sorted-doc.exe - Tools for rebuilding the + built-in documentation. + +* Image support + + Emacs has built in support for XBM and PPM/PGM/PBM images, and the + libXpm library is bundled, providing XPM support (required for color + toolbar icons and splash screen). Source for libXpm should be available + on the same place as you got this binary distribution from. The version + of libXpm bundled with this version of Emacs is 3.5.7, based on x.org's + libXpm library from X11R7.3. + + Emacs can also support some other image formats with appropriate + libraries. These libraries are all available as part of GTK, or from + gnuwin32.sourceforge.net. Emacs will find them if the directory they + are installed in is on the PATH. + + PNG: requires the PNG reference library 1.2 or later, which will + be named libpng13d.dll, libpng13.dll, libpng12d.dll, libpng12.dll + or libpng.dll. LibPNG requires zlib, which should come from the same + source as you got libpng. + + JPEG: requires the Independant JPEG Group's libjpeg 6b or later, + which will be called jpeg62.dll, libjpeg.dll, jpeg-62.dll or jpeg.dll. + + TIFF: requires libTIFF 3.0 or later, which will be called libtiff3.dll + or libtiff.dll. + + GIF: requires libungif or giflib 4.1 or later, which will be + called giflib4.dll, libungif4.dll or libungif.dll. + + +* Uninstalling Emacs + + If you should need to uninstall Emacs, simply delete all the files and + subdirectories from the directory where it was unpacked (Emacs does + not install or update any files in system directories or anywhere + else). If you ran the addpm.exe program to create the registry + entries and the Start menu icon, then you can remove the registry + entries using regedit. All of the settings are written under the + Software\GNU\Emacs key in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, or if you didn't have + administrator privileges, the same key in HKEY_CURRENT_USER. Just + delete the Software\GNU\Emacs key. + + The Start menu entry can be removed by right-clicking on the Task bar + and selecting Properties, then using the Remove option on the Start + Menu Programs page. (If you installed under an account with + administrator privileges, then you need to click the Advanced button + and look for the Gnu Emacs menu item under All Users.) + +* Troubleshooting + + Unpacking the distributions + + If you encounter trouble trying to run Emacs, there are a number of + possible causes. If you didn't use the versions of tar and gunzip (or + djtarnt) on the above ftp site, it is possible that the distribution + became corrupted while it was being unpacked. Check the following for + indications that the distribution was not corrupted: + + * Be sure to disable the CR/LF translation or the executables will + be unusable. Older versions of WinZipNT would enable this + translation by default. If you are using WinZipNT, disable it. + (I don't have WinZipNT myself, and I do not know the specific + commands necessary to disable it.) + + * Check that filenames were not truncated to 8.3. For example, + there should be a file lisp\abbrevlist.elc; if this has been + truncated to abbrevli.elc, your distribution has been corrupted + while unpacking and Emacs will not start. + + * Users have said that some utilities (WinZip again?) don't create + the lock subdirectory. You can create the lock directory by hand + (it is normally empty). + + * Users have also reported that the gnu-win32 tar corrupts the + executables. Use the version of tar or djtarnt on the ftp.gnu.org + site instead. + + If you believe you have unpacked the distributions correctly and are + still encountering problems, see the section on Further Information + below. + + Virus scanners + + Some virus scanners interfere with Emacs' use of subprocesses. If you + are unable to use subprocesses and you use Dr. Solomon's WinGuard or + McAfee's Vshield, turn off "Scan all files" (WinGuard) or "boot sector + scanning" (McAfee exclusion properties). + +* Further information + + If you have access to the World Wide Web, I would recommend pointing + your favorite web browser to following the document (if you haven't + already): + + http://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/windows/ntemacs.html + + This document serves as an FAQ and a source for further information + about the Windows port and related software packages. + + In addition to the FAQ, there is a mailing list for discussing issues + related to the Windows port of Emacs. For information about the + list, see this Web page: + + http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-emacs-windows + + To ask questions on the mailing list, send email to + help-emacs-windows@gnu.org. (You don't need to subscribe for that.) + To subscribe to the list or unsubscribe from it, fill the form you + find at http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-emacs-windows as + explained there. + + Another valuable source of information and help which should not be + overlooked is the various Usenet news groups dedicated to Emacs. + These are particuarly good for help with general issues which aren't + specific to the Windows port of Emacs. The main news groups to use + for seeking help are: + + gnu.emacs.help + comp.emacs + + There are also fairly regular postings and announcements of new or + updated Emacs packages on this group: + + gnu.emacs.sources + +* Reporting bugs + + If you encounter a bug in this port of Emacs, we would like to hear + about it. First check the FAQ on the web page above to see if the bug + is already known and if there are any workarounds. Then check whether + the bug has something to do with code in your .emacs file, e.g. by + invoking Emacs with the "-q --no-site-file" options. + + If you decide that it is a bug in Emacs that might be specific to the + Windows port, send a message to the "help-emacs-windows@gnu.org" + mailing list describing the bug, the version of Emacs that you are + using, and the operating system that you are running on (Windows NT, + 2000, 95, 98, etc. including service pack level if known). If the bug + is related to subprocesses, also specify which shell you are using + (e.g., include the values of `shell-file-name' and + `shell-explicit-file-name' in your message). + + If you think the bug is not specific to the Windows port of Emacs, + then it is better to mail the bug report to "bug-gnu-emacs@gnu.org" so + that it will be seen by the right people. If Emacs has been set up to + send mail, you can use the command M-x report-emacs-bug to create and + send the bug report, but in some cases there is a function to report + bugs in a specific package; e.g. M-x gnus-bug for Gnus, M-x + c-submit-bug-report for C/C++/Java mode, etc. + + Enjoy! + + +This file is part of GNU Emacs. + +GNU Emacs is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify +it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by +the Free Software Foundation; either version 3, or (at your option) +any later version. + +GNU Emacs is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, +but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of +MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
