Installing PSGML
****************
As of `XEmacs 21.0' (with `EFS' installed) you can get the latest
`psgml' package by evaluating the follwing two lines within `XEmacs':
(require 'package-get)
(package-get 'psgml nil)
To install PSGML in XEmacs versions prior to 21.0 you first need to
uncompress and unpack the source archive. This is done with the
`gunzip' and `tar' commands.
gunzip psgml-1.0.1.tar.gz; tar xf psgml-1.0.1.tar
This should create a subdirectory to the current directory with the
source code. This directory contains a `configure' command (see the
file INSTALL for more information about configure). You can use the
`configure' command to configure the package or you can load the file
`psgml-maint' and execute the `psgml-compile-files' command.
Place the `*.el' and the `*.elc' files in a directory where Emacs
can find it (i.e. one of the directories in the `load-path' variable,
you can add a directory to this variable in your `.emacs'.)
If you use the `configure' approach, compile psgml with `make' and
the you can run `make install' to install it in the system library
`site-lisp'. The files are installed in a subdirectory named `psgml'.
The location of `site-lisp' is figured out by `configure', but you can
change it in the `Makefile'. You need to make sure that this
subdirectory is in Emacs `load-path'.
Put the following line in your .emacs:
(autoload 'sgml-mode "psgml" "Major mode to edit SGML files." t )
You may also want to set up search paths for external entities,
See Entity manager.
The `psgml.info' is the documentation for PSGML in the info format.
You can read this with the Emacs command `C-u C-h i'. You can also
install the file in your systems info directory and edit the `dir' file
to include `psgml.info' in the menu.
The info file `psgml.info' is created from the texinfo file
`psgml.texi'. The texinfo file can also be used to create a hard copy
of the documentation. To do this you need the TeX program and a copy
of `texinfo.tex'.
