You need to get these from bzr. The admin\nt directory to point to is actually the one checked out from bzr. For example: C:\emacs-bzr\trunk\admin\nt Since you have the makedist.bat I assume you have the bzr checkout somewhere. Try this: Extract the tarball to C:\, i.e. C:\emacs-23.1.94\ Copy makedist.bat from \trunk\admin\nt to C:\ Then run: makedist 23.1.94 emacs-23.1.94 C:\emacs-bzr\trunk\admin\nt That should do it. You might just have to adjust the directory structure to point to your bzr checkout. I am actually working on an automated way of building and packaging the Windows version of emacs. nmake support is giving me some headache though, so it could be a little while longer until it is available. Let me know if this works, I just did this a couple of days ago and can help troubleshoot.
