Is there a way to have an entire emacs install sitting on a flash
drive and be able to run it on Linux, Windows and Mac?
I have seen web-sites that show the procedure for Windows but not
Linux or Mac.
Thanks,
Deech

What does not work with ./configure --prefix=/path/to/flash/ ?
I suspect no one ever wrote something about this procedure because there
is nothing to write about.

you want. refer to install docs.

Interesting have in bin dir with platform depend excutable and have
lisp, site-lisp dir same for they.
None of previous answer explain that.
emacs-22.2-barebin-i386 has about 16 MiB. So for all in use desktop you
must have 3*16 MiB (MAC, Windows, Linux). And 110 MiB for share elisp.

I've had good luck with this using the self-contained Emacs.app (Carbon)
for Mac OS and W32 Emacs along with a Cygwin install.
