I there an easy way to build XEmacs from source? I mean a way that doesn't require me to mess around with the f'ing package system and that makes the .el files accessible?
I grab the source tarball, then grab the xemacs-sumo packages tarball and the xemacs-mule-sumo packages tarball (if you enable mule/unicode). Pick a directory where you want to install the xemacs binary, and extract the sumo tarballs in lib/xemacs. I never play around with the package system.
The sumo tarballs don't contain the source, AFAICT.
That's odd. My xemacs-sumo-2007-04-27.tar.bz2 contains source. I didn't check everything, but for every elc I checked, I have an el file.
I'll disable slime-autodoc for XEmacs as it is based and eldoc and the eldoc in XEmacs is from 2003 which doesn't have the hooks needed for slime-autodoc.
Ok, but I hope that doesn't disable the display to slime-typeout. If it does, I'll sorely miss that feature.
No that doesn't disable slime-typeout. But yes, slime-autodoc would be one of the better uses for the typeout frame.
Oh, that's cool then.
I did try the latest eldoc from emacs 22.3. With a few tweaks, it seems to work with xemacs. But I haven't really tried it with slime yet.
