- Hi,
-
- I'm trying to install vm 4.41 with this makefile:
-
- # beginning of makefile
- EMACS=emacs
-
- VM:
- $(EMACS) -batch -q -f batch-byte-compile vm.el
- $(EMACS) -batch -q -l vm.elc -f batch-byte-compile vm-*.el
-
- vm: vm.texinfo
- $(EMACS) -batch -q vm.texinfo -f texinfo-format-buffer -f save-buffer
-
- all: VM vm
- # end of makefile
-
- The files are all in the directory vm to which I've added to exec-path list and the load path list like this:
- (nconc load-path '("/m/a/ryanr/vm"))
- (nconc exec-path '("/m/a/ryanr/vm"))
-
- In emacs I loaded it up with "M-x load-file RET vm.elc" and start with
- "M-x vm RET"
-
- Although the machine seems to go into vm and views the headers with an
- "h" command all right, the letter itself does not show up on the screen
- ecxcept for its header Could someone tell me what's going wrong and how
- to fix it?
-
- Thanks,
- Richard.
