See the file nt/INSTALL.MSYS for detailed instructions. +Using the Posix configure script and Makefile's also means a change in +the directory structure of the Emacs installation on Windows. It is +now the same as on GNU and Unix systems. In particular, the auxiliary +programs, such as cmdproxy.exe and hexl.exe, are in +libexec/emacs/VERSION/i686-pc-mingw32 (where VERSION is the Emacs +version), version-independent site-lisp is in share/emacs/site-lisp, +version-specific Lisp files are in share/emacs/VERSION/lisp and in +share/emacs/VERSION/site-lisp, Info docs are in share/info, and data +files are in share/emacs/VERSION/etc. (Emacs knows about all these +directories and will find the files in there automatically; there's no +need to set any variables due to this change.) + * Startup Changes in Emacs 24.4 |
