-Note that for most of the following options, you can explicitly enable
-them using `--OPTION=yes' and explicitly disable them using `--OPTION=no'.
-This is especially useful for auto-detected options.
-The option `--without-FEATURE' is a synonym for `--with-FEATURE=no'.

-Options marked with a (*) are auto-detected.
+CONFIGURATION is an optional architecture-vendor-os triple, such as
+`sparc-sun-solaris2.7'.  When possible, omit it; configure will detect it.
+
+Conventions for options:
+- Boolean options may be explicitly enabled by using `--OPTION=yes' and
+  explicitly disabled by using `--OPTION=no'.  `--OPTION' (with no argument)
+  is equivalent to `--OPTION=yes'.  `--without-FEATURE' is a synonym for
+  `--with-FEATURE=no'.  Denoted `(Bool)' below.
+- Enumerated options accept one type from a specified list.  These usually
+  accept `--OPTION=no' to disable it entirely, and `--OPTION=yes' often has a
+  useful default.  Denoted `(Enum)'.
+- Set options accept one or more types from a list of implementations of the
+  feature.  All specified implementations will be included.  Prefix a type
+  with `no' to disable only that implementation (e.g., `--with-sound=nonas'
+  to disable NAS).  The special values `none' and `all' must be first in the
+  list if used.  They change the defaults for all types individually from
+  autodetect to `no' or `yes' respectively.  `--with-sound=none,native' and
+  `--with-sound=noesd,nonas,native' have the same effect.  Denoted `(Set)'.
+- Other options have special, option-specific formats.
+
+Options marked with a (*) are auto-detected.  If auto-detected and not
+explicitly specified, normally
+- Boolean options default to `yes'.
+- Enumerated options default to the first detected type in an option-specific
+  priority.  Possible defaults are marked with (*) and listed in order.
+- Set options default to all detected types.
+
+Some options are provided mainly to disable features which are on by default.
+These are indicated by specifying `--OPTION=no'.  Explicitly specifying an
+autodetected option which defaults to `yes' makes a failure to detect signal
+a fatal configure error.

 
 Use colons (or quoted spaces) to separate directory names in option
 values which are PATHs (i.e. lists of directories).

+Many features require external packages to be installed.  configure will fail
+if an explicitly requested feature depends on an uninstalled package.  On many
+Linux systems, you must install -devel versions of the package.
+
+The results of configure tests are saved in config.log, which is useful
+for diagnosing problems.  Caching of configure results is disabled.
+If successful, configure leaves its status in config.status.  If
+unsuccessful after disturbing the status quo, it removes config.status.

-Additional features:
+GUI component options:
+
+Select the widget set used to implement components, Lucid, Motif, or Athena.
+If `--with-gtk', `--with-gnome', or `--with-msw' are used or implied, treat
+component options as Bool.  The `lucid' widgets are a homebrew set, emulating
+Motif but faster.  Lucid toolbars, menubars, and scrollbars are implemented
+in Xt.  Lucid dialogs and misc widgets wrap and enhance Motif (or Athena if
+Motif is not found).  Several enhanced (eg, 3d) Athena libraries may be used,
+but the default is the X11R6 `libXaw' (flat) widgets.  Use `--with-athena' to
+explicitly specify which library to link against.
+
+--with-toolbars=no      (Bool) Don't compile with any toolbar support.
+--with-menubars=TYPE    (Enum) Types: `lucid'(*), `motif', or `no'.
+                        *WARNING*  The Motif menubar is currently broken.
+--with-scrollbars=TYPE  (Enum) Types: `lucid'(*), `motif', `athena', or `no'.

+--with-widgets=TYPE     (Enum) Types: `lucid', `motif', `athena', or `no'(*).
+--with-athena=TYPE      (Enum) Link with the TYPE Athena library.  Types:
+                        `xaw' [flat], `3d', `next', `95', or `xpm'.
+--with-dragndrop (*)    Support generic drag and drop API. (EXPERIMENTAL)
+--with-cde              Support CDE drag and drop API (requires dragndrop).
+--with-offix            Support OffiX drag and drop API (requires dragndrop).
+                        *WARNING*  OffiX support may interfere with use of
+                        multiple X displays.  If the two servers are from
+                        different vendors, the results may be unpredictable.
+
+
+TTY (character terminal) options:
+
+--with-tty=no           Don't support ttys.
+--with-ncurses (*)      Use the ncurses library for tty support.

+--native-sound-lib=LIB  Native sound support library.  Needed on Suns
+                        with `--with-sound=native,nas' because both sound
+                        libraries are called libaudio.
+
+
+Database options:
+
+--with-database=TYPES (*)  (Set) Support key:value databases.
+                        Types: `berkdb', `dbm', or `gnudbm'.  `dbm' and

-                       used in conjunction with Mule support).
---with-wnn (*)         Compile with support for WNN (a multi-language input method
-                       used in conjunction with Mule support).
---with-wnn6 (*)                Compile with support for the comercial package WNN version 6
---with-i18n3           Compile with I18N level 3 (support for message
-                       translation).  This doesn't currently work.
---with-xfs             Compile with XFontSet support for bilingual menubar.
-                       Can't use this option with --with-xim=motif or xlib.
-                       And should have --with-menubars=lucid.
+--with-mule             (Bool) Support non-Latin-1 (including Asian) languages.
+--with-xim=TYPE         (Enum) Support X Input Method protocol.  Types:
+                        `motif'(*), `xlib', `no'.  Requires Mule.
+--with-canna (*)        (Bool) Support the Canna input method.  Requires Mule.
+--with-wnn (*)          (Bool) Support the Wnn input methods.  Requires Mule.
+--with-wnn6 (*)         (Bool) Support the commercial version of Wnn.
+--with-xfs              (Bool) Support internationalized menubar via XFontSets.
+                        `--with-menubars=lucid' (the default) is desirable.
+                        Incompatible with `--with-xim=motif'.
+
+
+Additional features:
+
+--with-workshop         (Bool) Support the Sun WorkShop (formerly Sparcworks)
+                        development environment.
+--with-tooltalk (*)     (Bool) Support the ToolTalk IPC protocol.

+--with-netinstall       (Bool) Support installation over the internet.
+                        Only functional on MS Windows platforms.
+--with-ipv6-cname       (Bool) IPv6-ly correct host name canonicalization.
+                        IPv6 is always supported if detected; this option
+                        prevents blocking and unwanted dialup for CNAME lookup.
+--external-widget       (Bool) Export XEmacs as a text widget. (EXPERIMENTAL)
+--with-modules (*)      (Bool) Support for dynamically loaded libraries
+                        (Dynamic Shared Objects). (EXPERIMENTAL)
+--pdump                 (Bool) Somewhat experimental portable dumper.
+--with-file-coding      (Bool) Support detection and translation of newline
+                        conventions.  Default:  `yes' on Windows, `no' on Unix.
+--with-clash-detection=no  (Bool) Detect other instances editing the same file.
+
+
+Memory allocation options:
+
+--rel-alloc             (Bool) Use the relocating allocator (default for this
+                        option is system-dependent).
+--with-dlmalloc=no      (Bool) Don't use Doug Lea malloc on systems that have
+                        it in the standard C library.

+--with-debug-malloc     (Bool) Use the debugging malloc package.
+--use-regex-malloc=no   (Bool) Use malloc (not alloca) for regex fail stack.
+                        Setting this to 'no' allows crashes - it may be
+                        impossible to detect stack exhaustion, and your
+                        XEmacs will crash.

 Debugging options:
 

---debug                        Compile with support for debugging XEmacs.
-                       (Causes code-size increase and little loss of speed.)
---error-checking=TYPE[,TYPE]...
-                       Compile with internal error-checking added.
-                       Causes noticeable loss of speed.  Valid types
-                       are extents, bufpos, malloc, gc, typecheck.
---error-checking=none  Disable all internal error-checking (the default).
---error-checking=all   Enable all internal error-checking.
---memory-usage-stats   Compile with additional code to allow you to
-                       determine what XEmacs's memory is being used
-                       for.  Causes a small code increase but no loss
-                       of speed.  Normally enabled when --debug is given.
---no-doc-file          Don't rebuild the DOC file unless it's explicitly
-                       deleted.  Only use during development. (It speeds
-                       up the compile-run-test cycle.)
---use-union-type       Enable or disable use of a union, instead of an
-                       int, for the fundamental Lisp_Object type; this
-                       provides stricter type-checking.  Only works with
-                       some systems and compilers.
-
-
-Other options:
-
---puresize=VALUE       Override default amount of space for pure Lisp code.
---rel-alloc            Use the relocating allocator (default for this option
-                       is system-dependent).
---with-dlmalloc                Control usage of Doug Lea malloc on systems that have
-                       it in the standard C library (default is to use it if
-                       it is available).
---with-clash-detection Use lock files to detect multiple edits of the same file.
-                       The default is to not do clash detection.
---lockdir=DIR          The directory to put clash detection files in, such as
-                       `/var/lock/emacs'.
-    Defaults to `${statedir}/xemacs/lock'.
---with-system-malloc   Force use of the system malloc, rather than GNU malloc.
---with-debug-malloc    Use the debugging malloc package.
---with-quantify                Add support for performance debugging using Quantify.
---with-purify          Add support for memory debugging using Purify.

+                        determine what XEmacs's memory is being used
+                        for.  Causes a small code increase but no loss
+                        of speed.  Normally enabled when `--debug' is given.
+--error-checking=TYPES  (Set) Compile with internal error-checking added.
+                        Causes noticeable loss of speed.  Types: `bufpos',
+                        `byte-code', `extents', `gc', `glyphs', `malloc', and
+                        `typecheck'.  The default value is `none'.
+--use-union-type        (Bool) Define Lisp_Object as a union, not an int.
+                        Use for strict _static_ type-checking.  Implicated in
+                        system-dependent, hard-to-debug crashes.  See PROBLEMS.
+                        Do NOT use in production builds.
+--no-doc-file           (Bool) Don't rebuild the DOC file unless it's missing.
+                        Only use during development.
+--quick-build           (Bool) Don't GC when dumping.  Implies `--no-doc-file'.
+--with-quantify         (Bool) Support performance debugging using Quantify.
+--with-purify           (Bool) Support memory debugging using Purify.
