UniPress Emacs Release V2.20	(24-Aug-89)

This is the top level directory in the Emacs V2.20 source distibution.  To
install it, first make sure that you have write permissions in the directories
in which you want to install it (/usr/local/lib and /usr/local/bin by
default).  Run the einstall script in this directory by typing:

		sh einstall

It will ask you questions about where you want to install things, and which
terminal drivers you want to include, etc.  If you are happy with the defaults
offered for each question, you can just type RETURN to accept each one.  Once
you have answered the questions, einstall continues to run in background.  It
senses your system type, configures the Emacs sources appropriately, and
compiles and installs the various parts of Emacs.

The output of the installation procedure is logged in the file install.LOG.
You should look at this file to see when the installation has finished, and if
it encountered any problems.  If you respond "yes" when einstall asks if you
want to watch the progress of the installation, it will continuously display
the additions to that file, which grows as the installation proceeds.  You can
type the following commands to examine the installation log:

	sh einstall watch	at any time to resume watching the installation in
				progress
	sh einstall review	to see the entire installation log

For more information on the automatic installation procedure, including how to
install things by hand, read the Installation Guide.  (see the file
doc/D.install/InstallGuide.nr.)

See the other files in doc directory for more information about this release.
In particular, look at the files doc/Notes.* for notes on running Emacs on
particular systems, terminals, etc.

To print copies of the Emacs documentation, use the print script in this
top-level directory.  By default this script uses ptroff as its formatter,
which is suitable for standard TransScript installations, as found on many
Suns.  If you are happy with that, just type:

		sh print

If you have some other program you'd rather use than ptroff, say, troff, you
can give its name as follows:

		sh print TROFF=/usr/bin/troff

If the print script is given no arguments, this script asks which documents
you want to print, and then issues commands to print the documents you chose.
See the first few lines of the print script itself to learn about other
arguments that you can give to the print script to print other things.

The sources for the Release Notes are in the directory D.relnotes.
They are also available online via the Emacs help subcommand 'n' (^_-n).
