-Q1.4.7: How come options saved with 19.13 don't work with 19.14 or later?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
- There's a problem with options of the form:
-
- (add-spec-list-to-specifier (face-property 'searchm-field 'font)
- '((global (nil))))
-
- saved by a 19.13 XEmacs that causes a 19.14 XEmacs grief. You must
-delete these options. XEmacs 19.14 and later no longer write the
-options directly to `.emacs' which should allow us to deal with version
-incompatibilities better in the future.
-
- Options saved under XEmacs 19.13 are protected by code that
-specifically requires a version 19 XEmacs. This won't be a problem
-unless you're using XEmacs v20. You should consider changing the code
-to read:
-
- (cond
- ((and (string-match "XEmacs" emacs-version)
- (boundp 'emacs-major-version)
- (or (and (= emacs-major-version 19)
- (>= emacs-minor-version 12))
- (>= emacs-major-version 20)))
- ...
- ))

+2.0: Installation
+=================
+
+Q2.0.1: Running XEmacs without installing
+-----------------------------------------
+
+ The `INSTALL' file says that up to 108 MB of space is needed
+temporarily during installation! How can I just try it out?
+
+ XEmacs will run in place without requiring installation and copying
+of the Lisp directories, and without having to specify a special
+build-time flag. It's the copying of the Lisp directories that
+requires so much space. XEmacs is largely written in Lisp.
+
+ A good method is to make a shell alias for xemacs:
+
+ alias xemacs=/i/xemacs-20.2/src/xemacs
+
+ (You will obviously use whatever directory you downloaded the source
+tree to instead of `/i/xemacs-20.2').
+
+ This will let you run XEmacs without massive copying.
