-CONFIGURATION BY HAND
-
-This should not be necessary and is not recommended. Instead of
-running the `configure' program, you have to perform the following steps.
-
-1) Copy `./src/config.in' to `./src/config.h'.
-
-2) Edit `./src/config.h' to set the right options for your system.
-
-3) Create `Makefile' files in various directories from the
-corresponding `Makefile.in' files. This isn't so hard, just a matter
-of editing in appropriate substitutions for the @...@ constructs.
-
-The `configure' script is built from `configure.ac' by the
-`autogen.sh' script, which checks that `autoconf' and other build
-tools are sufficiently up to date and then runs the build tools.
-
-BUILDING GNU EMACS BY HAND
-
-Once Emacs is configured, running `make' in the top directory performs
-the following steps.
-
-1) Run `make epaths-force' in the top directory. This produces
-`./src/epaths.h' from the template file `./src/epaths.in', changing
-the paths to the values specified in `./Makefile'.
-
-2) Go to directory `./lib' and run `make'. This creates include files
-and libraries used in later steps.
-
-3) Go to directory `./lib-src' and run `make'. This creates
-executables named `etags', `make-docfile', and others.
-
-4) Go to directory `./src' and run `make'. This refers to files in
-the `./lisp', `./lib', and `./lib-src' subdirectories using names
-`../lisp', `../lib', and `../lib-src'.
-
-This creates a file `./src/emacs' which is the runnable Emacs,
-which has another name that contains a version number.
-Each time you do this, that version number increments in the last place.
-
-It also creates a file in `./etc' whose name is `DOC' followed by the
-current Emacs version. This file contains documentation strings for
-all the functions in Emacs. Each time you run make to make a new
-emacs, a new DOC file with a new name is made. You must keep the DOC
-file for an Emacs version as long as you keep using that Emacs version.
-
-
-INSTALLATION BY HAND
-
-The steps below are done by running `make install' in the main
-directory of the Emacs distribution.
-
-1) Copy `./lisp' and its subdirectories, `./etc', and the executables
-in `./lib-src' to their final destinations, as selected in `./src/epaths.h'.
-
-Strictly speaking, not all of the executables in `./lib-src' need be copied.
-- The programs `hexl', `movemail', `profile', and `rcs2log'
- are used by Emacs; they do need to be copied.
-- The programs `etags', `ctags', and `emacsclient' are intended to be
- run by users; they are handled below.
-- The program `make-docfile' was used in building Emacs, and is
- not needed any more.
-
-2) Copy the files in `./info' to the place specified in
-`./lisp/site-init.el' or `./lisp/info.el'. Note that if the
-destination directory already contains a file named `dir', you
-probably don't want to replace it with the `dir' file in the Emacs
-distribution. Instead, you should make sure that the existing `dir'
-file contains an appropriate menu entry for the Emacs info.
-
-3) Copy `./src/emacs' to `/usr/local/bin', or to some other directory
-in users' search paths. `./src/emacs' has an alternate name
-`./src/emacs-EMACSVERSION'; you may wish to make a symbolic link named
-`/usr/local/bin/emacs' pointing to that alternate name, as an easy way
-of installing different versions.
-
-You can delete `./src/temacs'.
-
-4) Copy the programs `emacsclient', `ctags', and `etags' from `./lib-src'
-to `/usr/local/bin'. These programs are intended for users to run.
-
-5) Copy the man pages in `./doc/man' into the appropriate man directory.
-
-6) The files in the `./src' subdirectory, except for `emacs', are not
-used by Emacs once it is built. However, it is very desirable to keep
-the source on line for debugging.
