6 This directory contains the source of the "Introduction to Programming
|
|
7 in Emacs Lisp" written by Robert J. Chassell, bob@gnu.org. This
|
|
8 manual is an elementary introduction to programming in Emacs Lisp for
|
|
9 people who are not programmers, and who are not necessarily interested
|
|
10 in programming, but who do want to customize or extend their computing
|
|
11 environment.
|
|

|
|
13 This third edition of 2006 Oct 31 updates the previous editions to GNU
|
|
14 Emacs 22.
|
|
15
|
|
16 The Texinfo source file `emacs-lisp-intro.texi', formats without
|
|
17 reported error using `pdfeTeXk', Version 3.141592-1.21a-2.2 (Web2C
|
|
18 7.5.4) and texinfo.tex version 2006-08-26.17 started by `texi2dvi'
|
|
19 version 4.8, and with `makeinfo' version 4.8.
|
|
20
|
|
21 Also, this tar file contains the following optional Encapsulated Post
|
|
22 Script figures.

|
35 See the beginning of the `emacs-lisp-intro.texi' file for appropriate
|
|
36 settings. These figures are not necessary; they are merely nice to
|
|
37 look at --- without them you get the same figures printed with ASCII
|
|
38 characters.
|
|
39
|
|
40 Whether and how you print PostScript depends on your site. You not
|
|
41 only need to set 'print-postscript-figures' before creating the .dvi
|
|
42 file, but then must convert the .dvi file to .ps with a 'dvips' or
|
|
43 equivalent command.
|
|
44
|
|
45 On some systems you will see an error message when `psfig.tex' is
|
|
46 loaded for the last two .eps files:
|
|
47
|
|
48 ! No room for a new \write .
|
|
49
|
|
50 If this happens, try `epsf.tex' instead of `psfig.tex', or try typing
|
|
51 RET at the error; the formatting may continue successfully.
|
|
52
|
|
53 Or else find the section that says:
|
|
54
|
|
55 @c !!! Clear print-postscript-figures if the computer formatting this
|
|
56 @c document is too small and cannot handle all the diagrams and figures.
|
|
57 @c clear print-postscript-figures
|
|
58
|
|
59 and change the file so it reads: @clear print-postscript-figures
|
|
60 This will prevent TeX from attempting to load the last few .eps files.
|
|
61
|
|
62 You will find additional instructions on formatting in the beginning
|
|
63 of the Texinfo file 'emacs-lisp-intro.texi'. Best Wishes!
