So the current situation is, I have Emacs 24 installed from the repos, I have Emacs-w3m installed from the repos, I have all my gear in a directory in ~/.emacs.d, which is loaded from ~/.emacs - all everyday stuff in other words. Emacs 27 JIT tho I got from Git and built manually - if that is the right word - but I didn't install it. So I have it in a directory all to itself. Now, in order to carry out my plan, how can I tell Emacs 27 JIT to look for another init file (NOT the one I have for Emacs 24, ~/.emacs), and use another Emacs directory (NOT ~/.emacs.d) ?
