Hi Svante, On the long term I will likely need the lisp files, because I want to setup emacs in Hurd to mirror my local setup → make it a real work environment for me.
Or are the *.el files just the uncompiled lisp files with the *.elc files already included? … *el is still important: For the integrated help. I now use scp (because it is more convenient than woof :) ), but it already works nicely (after adding some randomness to /dev/urandom). The installation works, and I now have a running emacs-nox! Many thanks! Now to transfer my local environment over to the Hurd… … done (hg clone ssh://edrikor.dyndns.org/.emacs.d :) ). I have GNU HEmP running! (GNU {Hurd,Emacs} and Python) Next step: Set it up for using it as non-root :) After that: Move the writing of Hurd news over to Hurd. Yay! - Arne PS: CC to bug-hurd for info :)
