I naturally wanted to upgrade from flymake to flycheck. I downloaded a flycheck 20140422.657 tar into /usr/local/share/flycheck. Unarchiving it creates a directory in which there is flycheck-pkg.el, flycheck.el, flycheck.info. I didn't know how to install these files, and so tried copying them into ~/elisp. I added a line in ~/.elisp: (add-hook 'after-init-hook #'global-flycheck-mode) But when I try to initialize flycheck with M-x global-flycheck-mode I get: M-x global-flycheck [No Match] How should I have installed the file? There weres no directions. Haines Brown
