Subject: Emacs installer for MS Windows - where to put it?
Date: Fri, 1 Oct 2004 11:06:16 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <00ee01c4a795$f6af0f10$0200a8c0@sedrcw11488> (raw)
After some work and delays I have a beta version of an installer for Emacs
for MS Windows. I now want some advice of where to put the sources.
I do not know if it could be put on Savannah. The installer comes in two
flavors:
1) Without Emacs itself. In this case for example
emacs-21.3-fullbin-i386.tag.gz have to be downloaded separately. The
installer tells where this can be found and unpacks it. The unpacking is
done with 7za.exe from 7-zip (which I got Ivan Pavlovs permission to use for
this).
2) A more normal installer including Emacs itself.
Those two versions are buildt from the same sources. 7-zip is free software
(GNU LPGL, it is on SourceForge.net). The build process uses Inno Setup,
Emacs and cmd.exe.
I intend to include 7za.exe in both versions since it could for example be
used to install elisp docs. This part is not yet written and I wonder if
there are any elisp modules for that (probably using GNU/Linux or unix
tools) that could be rewritten for MS Windows to use 7za.exe for the
unpacking.
