-What's SEMI?
-------------
-
- SEMI is a library to provide MIME feature for GNU Emacs. MIME is a
- proposed internet standard for including content and headers other
- than (ASCII) plain text in messages.
-
- RFC 2045 : Internet Message Bodies
- RFC 2046 : Media Types
- RFC 2047 : Message Header Extensions
- RFC 2048 : MIME Registration Procedures
- RFC 2049 : MIME Conformance
-
- SEMI has the following features:
-
- - MIME style multilingual header (RFC 2047)
- - MIME message viewer (mime-view-mode) (RFC 2045 .. 2049)
- - MIME message composer (mime-edit-mode) (RFC 2045 .. 2049)
-
- MIME message viewer and composer also support following features:
-
- - filename handling by Content-Disposition field (RFC 1806)
- - PGP/MIME security Multiparts (RFC 2015)
- - application/pgp (draft-kazu-pgp-mime-00.txt; obsolete)
- - text/richtext (RFC 1521; obsolete; preview only)
- - text/enriched (RFC 1896)
-
- Notice that this package does not contain MIME extender for any
- MUAs and external methods. They are released as separated packages.
-
-
-Required environment
---------------------
-
- SEMI supports XEmacs 20.2 or later with mule, and Emacs 20.
-
- SEMI does not support anything older than Emacs 19.28 or XEmacs
- 19.14. SEMI also does not support Emacs 19.29 to 19.34, XEmacs
- 19.15 or XEmacs 20.2 without mule, but SEMI may work with them.
-
- If you use Emacs 20, don't set `enable-multibyte-characters' to
- nil. (Maybe non mule setting requires to modify emu. In addition,
- it is better to use terminal-coding-system feature)
-
- SEMI requires APEL and MEL package. Please install them before
- installing it. APEL package
- is available at:
-
- ftp://ftp.jaist.ac.jp/pub/GNU/elisp/apel/
-
- and MEL package is available at:
-
- ftp://ftp.jaist.ac.jp/pub/GNU/elisp/mime/libs/
-
- Notice that latest version of XEmacs may have latest version of APEL
- and MEL, so you should not install them.
-
- PGP/MIME and application/pgp require mailcrypt or tiny-pgp package.
-
- The package enriched.el is required to compose text/enriched, so if
- you use Emacs anything 19.28 or older (including official version of
- MULE 2.3), WYSIWYG composing for text/enriched is not available.
-
-
-Installation
-------------
-
- % make install
-
- You can specify the emacs command name, for example
-
- % make install EMACS=xemacs
-
- If `EMACS=...' is omitted, EMACS=emacs is used.
-
- You can specify the prefix of the directory tree for Emacs Lisp
- programs and shell scripts, for example:
-
- % make install PREFIX=~/
-
- If `PREFIX=...' is omitted, the prefix of the directory tree of the
- specified emacs command is used (perhaps /usr/local).
-
- For example, if PREFIX=/usr/local and EMACS 19.34 is specified, it
- will create the following directory tree:
-
- /usr/local/share/emacs/19.34/site-lisp/ --- emu
- /usr/local/share/emacs/site-lisp/apel/ --- APEL
- /usr/local/share/emacs/site-lisp/bitmap/ --- BITMAP-MULE
- /usr/local/share/emacs/site-lisp/mu/ --- MU
- /usr/local/share/emacs/site-lisp/mel/ --- MEL
- /usr/local/share/emacs/site-lisp/semi/ --- SEMI
-
- You can specify site-lisp directory, for example
-
- % make install LISPDIR=~/share/emacs/lisp
-
- If `LISPDIR=...' is omitted, site-lisp directory of the specified
- emacs command is used (perhaps /usr/local/share/emacs/site-lisp or
- /usr/local/lib/xemacs/site-lisp).
-
- You can specify other optional settings by editing the file
- semi/SEMI-CFG. Please read semi/README.en and comments in
- semi/SEMI-CFG.
-
-
-Initialization
---------------
-
-(a) load-path
-
- If you are using Emacs or Mule, please add directory of emu, apel,
- bitmap, mu, mel and semi to load-path. If you install by default
- setting, you can write subdirs.el for example:
-
- --------------------------------------------------------------------
- (normal-top-level-add-to-load-path
- '("apel" "bitmap" "mu" "mel" "semi"))
- --------------------------------------------------------------------
-
- If you are using XEmacs, there are no need of setting about
- load-path.
-
-(b) mime-setup
-
- Please insert the following into your ~/.emacs:
-
