-How to build T-gnus with Mule 2.3 based on Emacs 19.34.
-
-FIXING loaddefs.el
-==================
-
-Unfortunately, some variables for `message' are predefined in lisp/
-loaddefs.el which is dumped in Mule executable file. It is uninvited,
-moreover, it has a bad influence. So you should remove these
-definitions from lisp/loaddefs.el and rebuild Mule. However, if you
-don't want to rebuild Mule, you may put the following lines in the
-beginning of .emacs file instead of rebuilding Mule.
-
-(let ((symbols '(citation-line-function
- cite-function courtesy-message default-headers
- default-mail-headers default-news-headers
- deletable-headers fcc-handler-function
- followup-to-function from-style

- (while symbols
- (setq symbol (car symbols)
- symbols (cdr symbol))
- (makunbound (intern (format "message-%s" symbol)))))

-INSTALL CUSTOM, APEL, CLIME, SEMI
-=================================
-
-T-gnus requires the latest version of CUSTOM, APEL, CLIME and SEMI;
-CLIME 1.14 provides the same features as FLIM 1.14 for old Emacsen,
-which is currently available from:
-
-ftp://ftp.jpl.org/pub/m17n/clime-1_14-************.tar.gz
-
-You should install these packages before installing T-gnus. As for
-CUSTOM, you should apply the following patch before building it.

-By the way, the latest CUSTOM package for Emacs v19 is available from:

-
-
-INSTALL regexp-opt.el
-=====================
-
-Some T-gnus modules use the functions `regexp-opt', etc. That
-functions are defined in regexp-opt.el(c) in the recent Emacsen,
-however, Mule 2.3 does not contain it in the standard Lisp libraries.
-Copy the file contrib/regexp-opt.el to site-lisp directory (or any
-other directory), and byte-compile it as follows:
-
- % cp -p contrib/regexp-opt.el /usr/local/share/mule/site-lisp
- % cd /usr/local/share/mule/site-lisp/
- % mule -batch -q -no-site-file -f batch-byte-compile regexp-opt.el
-
-
-INSTALL passwd.el
-=================
-
-This module provide the `read-passwd' function. You have to install
-it if you don't have that function. To do this:
-
- % cp -p contrib/passwd.el /usr/local/share/mule/site-lisp
- % cd /usr/local/share/mule/site-lisp/
- % mule -batch -q -no-site-file -f batch-byte-compile passwd.el
-
-And add the following line in your .emacs file:
-
- (autoload 'read-passwd "passwd")
-
-
-INSTALL T-gnus
-==============
-
-There are three ways of making T-gnus with Mule 2.3 based on Emacs 19.34.
-
-1. If you have installed EMU, APEL, CLIME and SEMI packages under the
- standard load-path, for instance:
-
- EMU: /usr/local/share/mule/19.34/site-lisp/
- APEL: /usr/local/share/mule/site-lisp/apel/
- CLIME: /usr/local/share/mule/site-lisp/flim/
- SEMI: /usr/local/share/mule/site-lisp/semi/
-
- What is more, if you have been replaced old CUSTOM with new CUSTOM
- or if you have installed new CUSTOM directly under the standard
- load-path as such as /usr/local/share/mule/19.34/site-lisp/, you
- may have nothing to be done; type the following commands right now.
-
- % ./configure --with-emacs=mule
- % make install
-
- However, if you have installed new CUSTOM in the subdirectory under
- the standard load-path, use the configure option `--with-addpath='
- as follows:
-
- % ./configure --with-emacs=mule\
- --with-addpath=/usr/local/share/mule/site-lisp/custom/
- % make install
-
- or you can use the file subdirs.el under the parent directory of
- the subdirectory of CUSTOM to add it into load-path which contain
- the following contents:
-
- (normal-top-level-add-to-load-path
- '("custom/" "and the other subdirectories.../"))
-
- and then just type:
-
- % ./configure --with-emacs=mule
- % make install
-
-2. If you have installed EMU, APEL, CLIME and SEMI packages in the
- non-standard load-path, use the configure option `--with-addpath='
- with the colon separated directory names where EMU, APEL or CUSTOM
- packages are installed. For example:
-
- % ./configure --with-emacs=mule\
- --with-addpath=~/elisp/emu/:~/elisp/apel/:~/elisp/custom/
- % make install
-
- In this case, you have no need to add paths of CLIME, SEMI if they
- are installed under the directory which is same as the parent
- directory of APEL.
-
-3. This is another way to install T-gnus when you have installed EMU,
- APEL, CLIME and SEMI packages in the non-standard load-path. Copy
- the file `sample.lpath.el' which is included in the distribution to
- `~/.lpath.el' and modify it suitably for your environment. And
- then type the following command.
-
- % ./configure --with-emacs=mule
- % make install
-
-
-USING emacs-w3m (and Emacs/W3)
-==============================
-The web based backend `nnshimbun' uses the shimbun modules which are
-included in emacs-w3m package (and the other web based backends of T-
-gnus requires Emacs/W3). emacs-w3m is an interface program to the
-external command w3m, visit the following pages for more information.
-
- http://emacs-w3m.namazu.org/
- http://ei5nazha.yz.yamagata-u.ac.jp/~aito/w3m/
-
-If you wish to build T-gnus to be able to use emacs-w3m and nnshimbun,
-you have to specify the path where emacs-w3m is installed using the
-configure option `--with-addpath=' (for Emacs/W3, use the configure
-option `--with-w3=' or editing the file `~/.lpath.el'). Here is an
-example for that:
-
- % ./configure --with-emacs=mule\
- --with-addpath=~/elisp/emu/:~/elisp/apel/: ... :~/elisp/w3m/\
- --with-w3=/usr/local/share/mule/site-lisp/w3/
- % make install
-
-;; Don't mind if configure says "W3... not found". It is currently
-;; malfunction when the configure option `--with-w3=' is not used even
-;; if the path of Emacs/W3 is specified in the file `~/.lpath.el'.
-
-;; By the way, does anyone know where do we find Emacs/W3 package
-;; which is suitable to Mule 2.3 based on Emacs 19.34?
+T-gnus no longer supports Mule 2.3 based on Emacs 19.34.
