Looking in the obvious place:
ftp.gnu.org
the various readme files point to non-existent locations.
Eventually I found
ftp.gnu.org/gnu/windows/emacs
and the latest version that actually exists is 19.34 which
must be some years old by now. The directories like 21.3
contain lots of files with names like
<something> back-RSN
but dated last August. I tried 2 or 3 mirrors with similar
results. Please are there download sites with anything more
recent than 19.34? Thank you.

It seems to work; there are some problems but I cannot ask about them as I think they are more-or-less covered in the FAQ files at www.gnu.org/software/emacs/windows ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 5+ messages in thread
