Since it isn't my own computer, but my wife's, which she depends on absolutely for her work (web-site design), I want to get instructions from the horse's mouth(s). Also, note that it'll be she who does the physical install. 1: I already have cygwin installed -- AND ALSO ITS OWN EMACS. (which I've been playing with -- am tired of that narrow black-window -- am used on my computer with full-screen emacs, of course). 2: So, must the CURRENT emacs be removed, or can it just stay there? 3: if it has to be removed, how to do it? (note, it was installed along with the cygwin stufff, by simply answering yes to its emacs-instal question). 4: EXACT URL where the native-emacs is. No, I don't want to rely on google -- you guys know EXACTLY which I should use! (no chance for screwup!) :-) 5: anything else? THANKS! David
