Oh, I usually do (in a .BAT) cvs update cd nt make maintainer-clean ; realclean before configure make bootstrap install as the first thing in the morning, and I let it happily compile. Time is not much of an issue, I use 22.X meanwhile. > I never do a "make recompile" from the nt subdirectory. I don't, either (I use cvs-update from lisp/), but as of yesterday, nt/INSTALL includes this: make recompile Recompiles any changed lisp files after a cvs update. This saves doing a full bootstrap after every update. If this or a subsequent make fail, you probably need to perform a full bootstrap, though running this target multiple times may eventually sort out the interdependencies. so it would be perhaps preferable for recompile (from nt/) to do a bit more work and be more correct. Just a nitpick, though. Juanma
