E.g. ******************************************************************** ** ** ** The Emacs "emacs-unicode-2" branch has been merged into ** ** the CVS trunk, and is now obsolete. You should probably ** ** use the CVS trunk instead. ** ** ** ** To switch a CVS checkout to the trunk, use the command: ** ** ** ** cvs update -A ** ** ** ******************************************************************** The configure script is easy, though I'm not exactly sure which make targets such a thing should be added to... Any opinions? Thanks, -Miles -- `To alcohol! The cause of, and solution to, all of life's problems' --Homer J. Simpson
