You can use the Cygwin's distributed Emacs (21.2) - just use setup to download/install it. If you want to compile and install Emacs yourself, You'll have to get it from CVS (Emacs 22.0.50), this build as is. To get the CVS emacs do: export CVS_RSH="ssh" cvs -z3 -d:ext:anoncvs@savannah.gnu.org:/cvsroot/emacs co emacs Then install it as you would do on UNIX, i.e. configure make bootstarp make install Ehud. -- Ehud Karni Tel: +972-3-7966-561 /"\ Mivtach - Simon Fax: +972-3-7966-667 \ / ASCII Ribbon Campaign Insurance agencies (USA) voice mail and X Against HTML Mail http://www.mvs.co.il FAX: 1-815-5509341 / \ GnuPG: 98EA398D Better Safe Than Sorry
