How to compile emacs 22.3

I recently did a Slax install with just the main program. I used a copy of the live CD and ran a script to make hda1 bootable and then another script to use lilo to load it ... they were all on the CD ... So this is like a big live cd on my HD and not completely full-fledged OS. Anyway, I want to start by compiling my own Emacs ... Can someone help me? thanks

The process shouldn't be too complicated. First, you need to download the source from http://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/emacs/ Then you deploy the source with

tar xzf emacs-22.3.tar.gz

and cd to the newly created directory (emacs-22.3) There you run:

./configure


and then

make && make install

Read the INSTALL file for more information.

To compile emacs 22.3, first download http://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/emacs/emacs-22.3.tar.gz . Extract the files to a directory and then follow the instructions in the INSTALL file to install.

If you are asking how to compile it on a read-only filesystem:

  • If you have a lot of RAM, you can install a disc with discs.
  • If you have a hard drive, you can install additional space.
  • You can look at something like this fuse

    for more ideas.
