2 How to install Wanderlust
11 Wanderlust supports following Emacsen:
13 Mule 2.3 based on Emacs 19.34
17 Before installing Wanderlust, please install the following MIME
20 SEMI (1.14.6 or later)
21 FLIM (1.14.6 or later)
23 Wanderlust and MIME modules require APEL. Before installing MIME
24 modules, please install the APEL.
32 For each Emacsen, Recommended combination of MIME module package
35 (a) XEmacs 21.1 or later
37 APEL 10.7, FLIM 1.14.9, SEMI 1.14.6
39 Installation as a XEmacs package, If possible.
41 (b) Emacs 20.4 or later
43 APEL 10.7, FLIM 1.14.9, SEMI 1.14.6
45 (c) Emacs 20.1 to 20.3
47 APEL 10.7, CLIME 1.14.6, SEMI 1.14.6
49 Use CLIME instead of FLIM. FLIM does not support Emacs 20.3 or
52 (d) Emacs 19.34 (Mule 2.3)
54 APEL 10.7, CLIME 1.14.6, SEMI 1.14.6
56 Mule based on Emacs 19.34 can also run SEMI. See the following web
57 page to get more information (in Japanese).
59 http://www.jpl.org/elips/INSTALL-SEMI-ja.html
65 You can download these packages from following URLs.
67 APEL: ftp://ftp.m17n.org/pub/mule/apel/
68 FLIM: ftp://ftp.m17n.org/pub/mule/flim/
69 CLIME: ftp://ftp.jpl.org/pub/m17n/
70 SEMI: ftp://ftp.m17n.org/pub/mule/semi/
72 Please install APEL, FLIM(CLIME), and SEMI, in that order. Generally,
73 'make install' will do the job. To get full information, please refer
74 to the README.en within each package.
76 You can also use many other FLIM/SEMI variants. Combination of the
77 latest versions should work. For example, the following combinations
78 are confirmed to work:
80 APEL 10.6, SLIM 1.14.9, SEMI 1.14.5
81 APEL 10.6, CLIME 1.14.5, EMIKO 1.14.1
83 You have to re-install Wanderlust if you upgraded APEL, FLIM, or SEMI.
89 Before going to the next step, we recommend you to run tests by
93 % make EMACS=xemacs check
95 to check running environment including the version of APEL, FLIM, and
96 SEMI. Note that even if you have installed new APEL/FLIM/SEMI, old
97 ones in load-path may cause trouble. To find duplicated files in the
98 load-path, M-x list-load-path-shadows will help you.
104 (a) Edit Makefile, WL-CFG
106 Edit EMACS, LISPDIR, and so on in Makefile.
108 EMACS Emacs command name.
109 LISPDIR site-lisp directory.
111 If LISPDIR is not specified (or NONE by default), it is automatically
114 Edit WL-CFG if you need. You can specify language for INFO, etc.
116 (b) Bytecompile and Install
123 If you use Emacs without subdirs.el, the following error message
124 occasionally appears.
126 Cannot open load file: mime-setup
128 In this case, add directories of custom, APEL, FLIM, SEMI to
129 EMACSLOADPATH (environment variable), or add those directories to
133 Install as a XEmacs package
134 ===========================
136 Wanderlust is able to be installed as one of XEmacs (21.0 or later)
137 packages. After installation as a XEmacs package, you do not need
138 configurations of autoload, icon path in your own .emacs file.
140 (a) Edit Makefile, WL-CFG
142 Edit XEMACS, PACKAGEDIR, and so on in Makefile.
144 XEMACS XEmacs command name.
145 PACKAGEDIR package directory.
147 If PACKAGEDIR is not specified (NONE by default) and the SEMI
148 modules have been installed, it is automatically detected.
150 Edit WL-CFG if you need. You can specify language for INFO, etc.
152 (b) Bytecompile and Install

169 Wanderlust to load-path.
171 If you install by default setting, with Emacs 19.29 or later, Emacs
172 20.1, or Emacs 20.2, you can write subdirs.el for example:
174 --------------------------------------------------------------------

176 '("apel" "flim" "semi" "wl"))
177 --------------------------------------------------------------------
