Subject: Emacs 27.1 Windows Binaries -- testing wanted
Date: Sat, 15 Aug 2020 18:49:03 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <b06b9d7ceeb15e80b878ddcac21e61cd@russet.org.uk> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <eef3e0b6195e522da91cef53ac699a69@russet.org.uk>
Just to follow up on this, I have put windows binaries for Emacs 27.1
onto alpha. I am hoping for someone to install and try them before I
promote to the main release site. I don't use windows myself and can do
no more than cursory "does it launch" testing.
If anyone has used them, can you respond to this message!
