   1 SML-MODE shouldn't require any special external support package,
   2 as far as I can rememebr.  Just a recent copy of Emacs or XEmacs.

   4 Installation of the program
   5 ===================================
   6
   7   1. Edit the file `Makefile' to reflect the situation at your site.
   8      The only things you have to change is the definition of `lispdir'
   9      and `infodir'.  The elisp files will be copied to `lispdir', and
  10      the info file to `infodir'.
  11
  12   2. Have some sorbet.
  13
  14   3. Type `make install' in the source directory.  This will byte-compile
  15      all `.el' files and copy all into the directory you specified in step
  16      1.  It will also copy the info files (and add a corresponding entry to
  17      the info-dir file if install-info can be found).
  18
  19      If you only want to create the compiled elisp files, you can just type
  20      `make elcfiles' instead.
  21
  22   4. Edit the file `site-start.el' in your emacs lisp directory (usually
  23      `/usr/local/share/emacs/site-lisp' or something similar) and make it
  24      load the file `sml-mode-startup.el'.  It contains a couple of
  25      `auto-load's that facilitates the use of sml-mode.  Alternatively, you
  26      can just use `make install_startup'.  If you're only installing it for
  27      yourself rather than for the whole system, then use something like
  28      `make install_startup startupfile=$HOME/.emacs'.
  29
  30   5. If you had copied the contents of a previous sml-mode-startup.el file to
  31      your site-start.el (or .emacs), you might want to remove that.

  34 How to make typeset documentation from the TeXinfo manual
  35 =========================================================
  36
  37    If you have TeX installed at your site, you can make a typeset version of
  38 the manual typing ``make dvi''.  If you prefer a postscript version of this
  39 file, just use ``make postscript''.
