I am getting an Xemacs error when it starts up.  I placed Xemacs in a
non-standard location, and setup some environment variables.  It seems
to know where HOME is.  I have also unloaded the packages into a
sub-directory where the EXE file resides.  I placed binaries in the
directory - all are version 21.4.19.  I did not install using the Xemacs
installation tool, because security measures at the bank (Bank of
America) prevent such an installation.  I also tried to find information
at xemacs.org regarding the correct directory structure and any Windows
registry entries that I may need to set - to no avail.  My help desk
said that I should email you.

 

I want to customize Xemacs further for the ess package, so I need to get
this working to use it effectively.

 

Xemacs seems to work - I can edit files OK.  But the graphic menu at the
top looks scrunched-up like this, which is another tell-tale error:

 

 

 

 

Here is the error, which appears in a DOS window:

 

WARNING:  Couldn't find an obvious default for the root of the XEmacs
hierarchy.

WARNING:  Couldn't find obvious defaults for:

load-path

doc-directory

data-directory

exec-directory

lisp-directory

Perhaps some directories don't exist, or the XEmacs executable,

C:\Documents and Settings\NBKLUVA\My Documents\My
Programs\xemacs-21.4.19\xemacs.exe

is in a strange place?

 

 

Can you please tell me how to fix this?

 

Thanks,
