41 (1-a) run in expanded place
43 If you don't want to install other directories, please do only
48 You can specify the emacs command name, for example
52 If `EMACS=...' is omitted, EMACS=emacs is used.
56 If you want to install other directories, please do following:
60 You can specify the emacs command name, for example
62 % make install EMACS=xemacs
64 If `EMACS=...' is omitted, EMACS=emacs is used.
66 You can specify the prefix of the directory tree for Emacs Lisp
67 programs and shell scripts, for example:
69 % make install PREFIX=~/
71 If `PREFIX=...' is omitted, the prefix of the directory tree of the
72 specified emacs command is used (perhaps /usr/local).
74 For example, if PREFIX=/usr/local and EMACS 19.34 is specified, it
75 will create the following directory tree:
77 /usr/local/share/emacs/site-lisp/flim/ --- FLIM
79 You can specify site-lisp directory, for example
81 % make install LISPDIR=~/share/emacs/lisp
83 If `LISPDIR=...' is omitted, site-lisp directory of the specified
84 emacs command is used (perhaps /usr/local/share/emacs/site-lisp or
85 /usr/local/lib/xemacs/site-lisp).
87 You can specify other optional settings by editing the file
88 FLIM-CFG. Please read comments in it.
90 (1-c) install as a XEmacs package
92 If you want to install to XEmacs package directory, please do
95 % make install-package
97 You can specify the emacs command name, for example
99 % make install-package XEMACS=xemacs-21
101 If `XEMACS=...' is omitted, XEMACS=xemacs is used.
103 You can specify the package directory, for example:
105 % make install PACKAGEDIR=~/.xemacs
107 If `PACKAGEDIR=...' is omitted, the first existing package
110 Notice that XEmacs package system requires XEmacs 21.0 or later.
113 load-path (for Emacs or MULE)
114 =============================
116 If you are using Emacs or Mule, please add directory of FLIM to
117 load-path. If you install by default setting, you can write
118 subdirs.el for example:
120 --------------------------------------------------------------------
121 (normal-top-level-add-to-load-path '("apel" "flim"))
122 --------------------------------------------------------------------
124 If you are using XEmacs, there are no need of setting about
131 If you write bug-reports and/or suggestions for improvement, please
