[mew-int 00834] Re: How to add some more charsets to mew?

[Simon Vostry]

Hello!

I looked inside the Mule-UCS-0.84.tar.gz archive. There is a file
emacs-20.7-mule-4.1.patch.txt in which I saw the following HOW-TO
install it:

        % tar xzvf emacs-20.7.tar.gz
        % tar xzvf leim-20.7.tar.gz
        % cd emacs-20.7
        % patch -p1 < somewhere/emacs-20.7-mule-4.1.patch
        % sh configure
        % cd src
        % make emacs
        % cd ../lisp
        % ../src/emacs -batch -q -f batch-byte-compile \
        ange-ftp.el international/ccl.el international/mule-cmds.el \
        international/mule.el international/titdic-cnv.el
        % cd ..
        % make
        % make install

I'm quite confused, since I don't know where to start. I don't have
any emacs-20.7 directory on my RedHat 7.2...

I downloaded the following RPM's and installed:

mule-X11-2.3-14.i386.rpm
mule-2.3-14.i386.rpm

but it is probably something else :-) since no change occurs in
emacs. Is there some mule HOW-TO for dummies? I would probably need
one.

I know it is not an issue of mew, but I would be happy if someone
knows how to do it.

Thank you so far!
