README.Gentoo ------------- This is a quick tutorial on how to configure the XEmacs package user interface (package-ui). After you configure package-ui, you will be able to download and install XEmacs packages and dependencies while in XEmacs. For the complete documentation, see /usr/share/doc/xemacs-21.4.*/README.packages.gz Once XEmacs is emerged onto a Gentoo Linux system, you will only have the following elisp modules installed: xemacs-base, efs and (optionally if you had mule in USE) mule-base. This guide will show how to use package-ui to download and install your own preference in elisp modules to ~/.xemacs/xemacs-packages. First, start XEmacs and load the package-ui elisp module. M-x load-library RET package-ui RET The first thing to set is the download site (package-ui installs via network). M-x customize-variable RET package-get-remote RET Insert a new value, then: Choice: Remote Host: ibiblio.org Directory: /pub/packages/editors/xemacs/packages/ Make sure you set and save the change. Note, other host/directories are possible. The the documentation for package-ui for more information. Hint: ibiblio.org is *fast*. Then set the location package-ui should install to: M-x customize-variable RET pui-package-install-dest-dir RET Directory: ~/.xemacs/xemacs-packages Make sure you set and save the change. At this point you can install your modules: M-x pui-list-packages
