+---------------------- | | XEmacs is pretty useless as-is. It is just an engine. | You need to install modules to provide your users full functionnality. | There is two methods to achieve this : | 1 - install the xemacs21-sumo package. It contains all the | modules currently supported by the XEmacs team. | It's fast, easy and your users won't ever bother you again about this. | On the other hand the package is quite huge. | 2 - you have to install by hand every XEmacs' modules as described | in the XEmacs documentation. (Search for "packages" in the info tree.) | There are a lot of interdependencies between XEmacs' modules | and you may end up with everything installed just as method 1 would | have (without the hassle). | | Note: XEmacs modules are named "packages" by the XEmacs team, the term | "module" is used here just to limit possible confusion with | OpenBSD packages. +----------------------
