Hi,
I'm trying to build GNU Emacs for my PC. I've got djpp running ok I
believe. (Thanks for the port by the way!). I find that to build GNU
emacs I need sed, rm, mv and chmod. The first of these, sed, I built
without too much difficulty. The others come from the GNU fileutils.
Building these has proved to be more difficult. Part of the problem is
that some of the filenames are too big. A bigger problem is that some
of the utilities presume they know what an I-nodes looks like. I'm
guessing that DOS boxes don't have I-nodes. However, people on the net
claim that they have built Emacs on DOS. I'm left wondering how.
Has anybody done this? Do they have any advice they can give please?
thanks
