- HyperActiveFTP Installation Menu <(Return to HyperActiveFTP dired)>
- --------------------------------
-
- NOTE: Those who have had previous versions of HyperActiveFTP just do
- steps 0, 1 and 2 to update their system.
-
- -*- 0
-
- Everyone must <(Load in the Installation Code:5)>. Even if you have this file
- locally, click this button as I update the Installation Code off and on.
-
- -*- 1
-
- 1.1
- HyperActiveFTP should be installed in its own directory. If you want
- to use the default installation directory, proceed to 1.4. If you want
- to change the default directory, follow the directions in 1.2-1.4 carefully.
-
- 1.2
- It should not be installed in or below the Hyperbole directory because it
- will be tedious for you to separate the HyperActiveFTP files from the
- Hyperbole files when a new distribution of Hyperbole comes out.
-
- 1.3
- It is suggested that you place the directory for HyperActiveFTP just below
- the directory where you keep all of your emacs lisp code. For example, if
- all of your emacs lisp code is in ~/gnu, then when prompted for the
- HyperActive directory name, enter ~/gnu/HyperActive/. DO NOT FORGET
- THE SLASH.
-
- 1.4
- The default installation directory is ~/emacs/active-hyper/
- Click here if you want to <(Change Default Installation Directory)>
- or click here to <(Make Hyper-Installation Directory)>
-
- -*- 2
-
- If
- you already have a previous version of HyperActiveFTP
- then click here and I will just install <(updated files)>
-
- Else
- We will copy all the files from the home site at
- archive.cis.ohio-state.edu into the Hyper-Installation Directory.
- To overwrite old files in the Hyper-Installation Directory or to get
- your very first distribution of HyperActiveFTP, click here and I will
- <(Install the Latest Version of HyperActiveFTP)>
-
- Note:
- In neither case do I give you a copy of the file
- "active-hyper.list.frq.otl" this file is a list of frequently accessed
- sites. Each user will have his own preferred frequently-accessed sites.
-
-
- -*- 3
-
- Assuming you have these two commands in your .emacs file:
-
- (require 'ange-ftp)
- (load "hsite")
-
- Click here to <(find-file ~/.emacs)> and then add the following line
- anywhere in the file:
-
- (load-file "~/<HYPER-DIR>/active-hyper.requirements.el")
- where <HYPER-DIR> is the directory you elected to install HyperActiveFTP in.
- In the default case, this line would be:
- (load-file "~/emacs/active-hyper/active-hyper.requirements.el")
-
- -*- 4
- Now re-evaluate the .emacs file.
- Save it.
- Type M-x active-hyper:get-hyper to bring up the main menu.
