25852 | 1 This is a list of the status of GNU Emacs on various machines and systems. |
2 | |
3 For each system and machine, we give the configuration name you should | |
4 pass to the `configure' script to prepare to build Emacs for that | |
5 system/machine. | |
6 | |
7 The `configure' script uses the configuration name to decide which | |
8 machine and operating system description files `src/config.h' should | |
9 include. The machine description files are all in `src/m', and have | |
10 names similar to, but not identical to, the machine names used in | |
11 configuration names. The operating system files are all in `src/s', | |
12 and are named similarly. See the `configure' script if you need to | |
13 know which configuration names use which machine and operating system | |
14 description files. | |
15 | |
16 If you add support for a new configuration, add a section to this | |
17 file, and then edit the `configure' script to tell it which | |
18 configuration name(s) should select your new machine description and | |
19 system description files. | |
20 | |
21 | |
22 Here are the configurations Emacs is intended to work with, with the | |
23 corresponding configuration names. You can postpend version numbers | |
24 to operating system names (i.e. sunos4.1) or architecture names (i.e. | |
25 hppa1.1). If you leave out the version number, the `configure' script | |
26 will configure Emacs for the latest version it knows about. | |
27 | |
28 Acorn RISCiX (arm-acorn-riscix1.2) | |
29 | |
30 Emacs 19.29 has changes that ought to support RISCiX 1.2. | |
31 | |
32 Due to a bug in the RISCiX C compiler (3.4.5), emacs must | |
33 be built with gcc (versions 2.5.8 onwards). | |
34 | |
35 In addition, you will need GNU sed and GNU make, as the RISCiX release | |
36 versions of these utilities cannot cope with building emacs-19! | |
37 | |
38 GNU sed should be configured with: | |
39 | |
40 env 'DEFS=-Dgetopt=gnu_getopt -Dopterr=gnu_opterr -Doptind=gnu_optind \ | |
41 -Doptarg=gnu_optarg' ./configure | |
42 | |
43 GNU make (3.72+) should be configured with: | |
44 | |
45 env 'CFLAGS=-Dgetopt=gnu_getopt -Dopterr=gnu_opterr -Doptind=gnu_optind \ | |
46 -Doptarg=gnu_optarg' ./configure | |
47 | |
48 Emacs may be configured to use the X toolkit, by adding --with-x-toolkit | |
49 to the configure command. If you do this, you will need to edit the line | |
50 in src/Makefile which defines LIBW (about line 59) to read: | |
51 | |
52 LIBW= -lXaw_n | |
53 | |
54 This ensures that the non-shared widget library is used. | |
55 | |
56 It is unlikely that this version of emacs will work with RISCiX 1.1. | |
57 | |
58 Alliant (fx80-alliant-bsd): | |
59 | |
60 18.52 worked on system version 4. Previous Emacs versions were | |
61 known to work on previous system versions. | |
62 | |
63 If you are using older versions of their operating system, you may | |
64 need to edit `src/config.h' to use `m/alliant1.h' (on version 1) or | |
65 `m/alliant.h' (on versions 2 and 3). | |
66 | |
67 Alliant FX/2800 (i860-alliant-bsd) | |
68 | |
69 Known to work with 19.26 and OS version 2.2, compiler version 1.3. | |
70 | |
30454 | 71 Alpha (DEC) running OSF/1 or GNU/Linux (alpha-dec-osf1, alpha-dec-linux-gnu) |
25852 | 72 |
73 For OSF/1 (aka Digital Unix) version 4.0, update 386, | |
74 it is reported that you need to run configure this way: | |
75 | |
76 configure --x-includes=/usr/include --x-libraries=/usr/shlib | |
77 | |
78 For 4.0 revision 564, and 4.0A and 4.0B, Emacs 20 seems to work | |

30454 | 84 Note that the X11 libraries on GNU/Linux systems for the Alpha are |
85 said to have bugs that prevent Emacs from working with X (as of | |
86 November 1995). Recent releases work (July 2000). | |

91 | |
92 Amdahl UTS (580-amdahl-sysv) | |
93 | |
94 Small changes for 18.38 were merged in 18.39. It is mostly | |
95 working, but at last report a bug sometimes causes Emacs to | |
96 grab very large amounts of memory. No fix or explanation | |
97 has yet been reported. It may be possible to find this bug | |
98 if you find which Emacs command it happens within and then | |
99 run that command with a breakpoint set at malloc. | |
100 | |
101 The 5.2u370 compiler is so brain damaged that it is not | |
102 even worth trying to use it. Success was obtained with the | |
103 uts native C compiler on uts version 5.2.5. | |

25852 | 128 Apollo running X Windows (m68k-apollo-bsd) |
129 | |
130 Apollo version now supports dumping. It has been tested on SR10.3 and | |
131 SR10.4. It certainly requires at least SR10.0, and maybe SR10.2. Be sure | |
132 to build in the BSD environment. | |
133 | |
134 By default, everything is compiled with the switch "-W0,-opt,2". Don't try | |
135 to change this to full optimization (-O). The full optimizer (in Domain CC | |
136 6.7, 6.8 and 6.9) generates some bad code in several modules which causes | |
137 the emacs window, under X, to be refreshed with each keystroke. | |
138 | |
139 The configuration stuff should work for the most part. However, some Domain | |
140 installations may have to edit src/Makefile manually after it is created. | |
141 There are too many versions of both cc and X to automate this easily. | |
142 | |
143 In `lib-src/Makefile', emacsclient and emacsserver compile and work fine | |
144 under CC 6.9. They now probably work under other versions of the compiler, | |
145 as well. | |
146 | |
147 The Apollo Domain CC compiler will issue quite a few warning messages, | |
148 mostly complaining about incompatible pointers. In general, these are | |
149 harmless and can be ignored. If you discover otherwise, please submit a bug | |
150 report identifying the problem in detail. | |
151 | |
152 When you try to dump emacs, you may get the message ".rwdi section needs | |
153 relocation." This means you are linking with some code that has compressed | |
154 data sections. In some cases this comes from linking with X libraries. Try | |
155 using shared X libraries instead. With some versions of Domain/OS this is | |
156 as simple as removing the "-lX11" from the LIBX line in src/Makefile. | |
157 | |
158 When running the configure script, use the configuration name | |
159 "m68k-apollo-bsd". You will also need to use the "-with-gcc=no" and | |
160 "-with-x" options. Depending upon your site configuration, you may have to | |
161 use other configure options, as well. Examine the INSTALL file for other | |
162 configure options. | |
163 | |
164 Check out the file 'lisp/x-apollo.el'. To use it, add | |
165 | |
166 (load "x-apollo") | |
167 | |
168 to your .emacs file. It provides useful default Apollo function key | |
169 bindings. | |
170 | |
171 AT&T 3b2, 3b5, 3b15, 3b20 (we32k-att-sysv) | |
172 | |
173 Emacs will probably not work with certain kernel constants too small. | |
174 | |
175 In param.h CDLIMIT should be at least (1L << 12) in order to allow | |
176 processes to write up to 2 Mbyte files. This parameter is configurable | |
177 by normal means in /etc/master.d/kernel; examine that file for the | |
178 symbol CDLIMIT or ULIMIT, and raise it by several powers of 2. Then | |
179 do normal kernel rebuild things via "cd /boot; mkboot -k KERNEL" and so | |
180 forth. | |
181 | |
182 In seg.h NSEGP and STACKSEG should be at least 16 and 4 respectively | |
183 to allow processes with total size of up to 2Mbytes. | |
184 However, I'm told it is unlikely this would fail to be true. | |
185 | |
186 The MAXMEM may also prevent Emacs from running. The file | |
187 3B-MAXMEM in this directory explains how to increase MAXMEM. | |
188 | |
189 On some of these machines, you may need to define IN_SCCS_ID | |
190 in config.h to make Emacs work. Supposedly you can tell whether | |
191 this is necessary by checking something in /usr/include/sys/time.h; | |
192 we do not know precisely what. | |
193 | |
194 AT&T 7300 or 3b1 (m68k-att-sysv) | |
195 | |
196 18.52 worked. If you have strange troubles with dumping | |
197 Emacs, delete the last few lines from `src/m/7300.h' and recompile. | |
198 These lines are supposed to produce a sharable executable. | |
199 | |
200 `src/m/7300.h' defines SHORTNAMES because operating system versions | |
201 older than 3.5 did not support long symbol names. Version 3.5 does | |
202 support them, so you can remove the #define SHORTNAMES in that | |
203 version. | |
204 | |
205 Bull DPX/2 models 2nn or 3nn (m68k-bull-sysv3) | |
206 | |
207 Minor fixes merged into 19.19, which should work with CC or GCC. | |
208 | |
209 You should compile with all the POSIX stuff: undef _SYSV and define | |
210 _POSIX_SOURCE, _XOPEN_SOURCE and _BULL_SOURCE. | |
211 | |
212 On bos2.00.45 there is a bug that makes the F_SETOWN fcntl | |
213 call enters in an infinite loop. F_SETOWN_BUG has been defined to avoid | |
214 calling it. | |
215 | |
216 Bull DPX/20 (rs6000-bull-bosx) | |
217 | |
218 Version 19 works. | |
219 | |
220 Bull sps7 (m68k-bull-sysv2) | |
221 | |
222 Changes partially merged in version 19, but some fixes are probably required. | |
223 | |
224 CCI 5/32, 6/32 | |
225 | |
226 See "Tahoe". | |
227 | |
228 Celerity (celerity-celerity-bsd4.2) | |
229 | |
230 Version 18.49 worked. This configuration name is a hack, because we | |
231 don't know the processor used by Celerities. If someone | |
232 who uses a Celerity could get in touch with us, we can teach | |
233 config.sub a better name for the configuration. | |
234 | |
235 Clipper (clipper-???) | |
236 | |
237 Version 19 has support for some brand of clipper system. If you | |
238 have successfully built Emacs 19 on some sort of clipper system, let | |
239 us know so we can flesh out this entry. | |
240 | |
241 Note that the Orion 105 is also a clipper, but some system-related | |
242 parameters are different. | |
243 | |
244 Convex (c1-convex-bsd, c2-convex-bsd, c32-convex-bsd, c34-convex-bsd, | |
245 c38-convex-bsd) | |
246 | |
247 Support updated and residual bugs fixed in 19.26. | |
248 | |
249 Cubix QBx/386 (i386-cubix-sysv) | |
250 | |
251 Changes merged in 19.1. Systems before 2/A/0 may fail to compile etags.c | |
252 due to a compiler bug. | |
253 | |
254 Cydra 5 (cydra-cydrome-sysv) | |
255 | |
256 18.51 worked in one version of their operating system but stopped | |
257 working in a newer version. This has not been fixed. | |
258 | |
259 Data General Aviion (m88k-dg-dgux) | |
260 | |
261 19.23 works; however, the GCC provided with DGUX 5.4R3.00 fails to | |
262 compile src/emacs.c. GCC 2.5.8 does work. | |
263 The 19.26 pretest was reported to work; no word on which compiler. | |
264 System versions other than DGUX 5.4R3.00 have not been tested. | |
265 | |
266 DGUX 5.4R3.10 works with 19.29 and 19.30. | |
267 | |
268 DGUX R4.11 contains changes to the stdio internals and it doesn't work | |
269 with versions before 20.2 without patches. 20.2 works in interactive | |
270 mode but usually fails in batch mode. The problem is that using | |
271 stderr in the dumped emacs usually leads to a segmentation fault. | |
272 Only m88k has been tested. | |
273 | |
274 DECstation (mips-dec-ultrix or mips-dec-osf) | |
275 | |
276 This machine is the older Mips-based DECstation. | |
277 Emacs should now work on the Alpha CPU. | |
278 | |
279 19.25 works on Ultrix 4.2. The 19.26 pretest was reported to work | |
280 on Ultrix 4.2a and on 4.4. | |
281 | |
282 One user reported 19.25 did not work at all with --with-x-toolkit | |
283 using X11R5 patch level 10, but worked ok with X11R5 pl26. | |
284 | |
285 See under Ultrix for problems using X windows on Ultrix. | |
286 Note that this is a MIPS machine. | |
287 | |
288 For Ultrix versions 4.1 or earlier, you may need to define | |
289 SYSTEM_MALLOC in `src/m/pmax.h', because XvmsAlloc.o in libX11.a seems | |
290 to insist on defining malloc itself. | |
291 | |
292 For Ultrix versions prior to 4.0, you may need to delete | |
293 the definition of START_FILES from `src/m/pmax.h'. | |
294 | |
295 Motorola Delta 147 (m68k-motorola-sysv) | |
296 | |
297 The EMacs 19.26 pretest was reported to work. | |
298 | |
299 Motorola Delta boxes running System V/68 release 3. | |
300 Tested on 147 board with SVR3V7, no X and gcc. | |
301 Tested on 167 board with SVR3V7, no X, cc, gnucc and gcc. | |
302 Reports say it works with X too. | |
303 | |
304 The installation script chooses the compiler itself. gnucc is | |
305 preferred. | |
306 | |
307 Motorola Delta 187 (m88k-motorola-sysv, | |
308 m88k-motorola-sysvr4, or | |
309 m88k-motorola-m88kbcs) | |
310 | |
311 The 19.26 pretest was reported to run on SVR3. However, if you | |
312 use --with-x-toolkit on svr3, you will have problems compiling some | |
313 files because time.h and sys/time.h get included twice. | |
314 One fix is to edit those files to protect against multiple inclusion. | |
315 | |
316 As of version 19.13, Emacs was reported to run under SYSVr3 and SYSVr4. | |
317 | |
318 Dual running System V (m68k-dual-sysv) | |
319 | |
320 As of 17.46, this worked except for a few changes | |
321 needed in unexec.c. | |
322 | |
323 Dual running Uniplus (m68k-dual-uniplus) | |
324 | |
325 Worked, as of 17.51. | |
326 | |
327 Elxsi 6400 (elxsi-elxsi-sysv) | |
328 | |
329 Changes for 12.0 release are in 19.1. | |
330 Dumping should work now. | |
331 | |
332 Encore machine (ns16k-encore-bsd) | |
333 | |
334 This machine bizarrely uses 4.2BSD modified to use the COFF format | |
335 for object files. Works (as of 18.40). For the APC processor you | |
336 must enable two lines at the end of `src/s/umax.h', which are commented | |
337 out in the file as distributed. | |
338 | |
339 WARNING: If you compile Emacs with the "-O" compiler switch, you | |
340 must also use the "-q enter_exits" switch so that all functions have | |
341 stack frames. Otherwise routines that call `alloca' all lose. | |
342 | |
343 A kernel bug in some system versions causes input characters to be lost | |
344 occasionally. | |

352 Changes are partially merged in version 18, but certainly require | |
353 more work. Let us know if you get this working, and we'll give it a | |
354 real configuration name. | |

356 Gould Power Node (pn-gould-bsd4.2 or pn-gould-bsd4.3) | |
357 | |
358 18.36 worked on versions 1.2 and 2.0 of the operating system. | |
359 | |
360 On UTX/32 2.0, use pn-gould-bsd4.3. | |
361 | |
362 On UTX/32 1.2 and UTX/32S 1.0, use pn-gould-bsd4.2 and note that | |
363 compiling `lib-src/sorted-doc' tickles a compiler bug: remove the -g | |
364 flag to cc in the makefile. | |
365 | |
366 UTX/32 1.3 has a bug in the bcopy library routine. Fix it by | |
367 #undef BSTRING in `src/m/gould.h'. | |
368 | |
369 Version 19 incorporates support for releases 2.1 and later of UTX/32. | |
370 A site running a pre-release of 2.1 should #define RELEASE2_1 in config.h. | |
371 | |
372 Gould NP1 (np1-gould-bsd) | |
373 | |
374 Version 19 supposedly works. | |
375 | |
376 Harris Night Hawk (m68k-harris-cxux or m88k-harris-cxux) | |
377 | |
378 This port was added in 19.23. The configuration actually tested was | |
379 a Night Hawk 4800 running CX/UX 7.0. | |
380 | |
381 If you have GCC ported and want to build with it, you probably need to | |
382 change things (like compiler switches) defined in the s/cxux.h file. | |
383 | |
384 If you have X11R6 installed in /usr/lib, configure will fail to find | |
385 it and may find X11R5 instead. To work around this problem, use | |
386 --x-libraries=/usr/lib when you run configure. | |
387 | |
388 With CX/UX 7.0 and later releases, you need to build after setting the | |
389 SDE_TARGET environment variable to COFF (a port using ELF and shared | |
390 libraries has not yet been done). | |
391 | |
392 Harris Power PC (powerpc-harris-powerunix) | |
393 | |
394 Patches have been merged in 19.31. | |
395 | |
396 Honeywell XPS100 (xps100-honeywell-sysv) | |
397 | |
398 Config file added in version 19. | |
399 | |
400 Hewlett-Packard 9000 series 200 or 300 (m68k-hp-bsd or m68k-hp-hpux | |
401 or m68k-hp-netbsd) | |
402 | |
403 These machines are 68000-series CPUs running HP/UX | |
404 (a derivative of sysV with some BSD features) or BSD 4.3 ported by Utah. | |
405 The operating system suffix determines which system Emacs is built for. | |
406 | |
407 Series 200 HPUX runs Emacs only if it has the "HP/UX upgrade". | |
408 | |
409 Version 19 works under BSD. The 19.26 pretest was reported | |
410 to work on HPUX 9. 19.31 works on HPUX 10.01, but there are | |
411 some problems on 10.10 which have not been resolved. Emacs 19.34 | |
412 works on HPUX 10.20 provided you compile with GCC; with the HP C | |
413 compiler, subprocess commands do not work. | |
414 | |
415 On HPUX 9, Emacs sometimes crashes with SIGBUS or SIGSEGV after you | |
416 delete a frame. We think this is due to a bug in the X libraries | |
417 provided by HP. With the alternative X libraries in | |
418 /usr/contrib/mitX11R5/lib, the problem does not happen. | |
419 | |
420 If you are running HP/UX release 8.0 or later, you need the optional | |
421 "C/ANSI C" software in order to build Emacs (older releases of HP/UX | |
422 do not require any special software). If the file "/etc/filesets/C" | |
423 exists on your machine, you have this software, otherwise you do not. | |
424 | |
425 Note that HP has used two incompatible assembler syntaxes, | |
426 and has recently changed the format of C function frames. | |
427 `src/crt0.c' and `src/alloca.s' have been conditionalised for the new | |
428 assembler and new function-entry sequence. You may need to define | |
429 OLD_HP_ASSEMBLER if you are using an older hpux version. If you | |
430 have an official (bought from HP) series 300 machine you have | |
431 the new assembler. Kernels that are 5.+ or later have new | |
432 assembler. A Series 200 that has been upgraded to a 68010 | |
433 processor and a 5.+ kernel has the new compiler. | |
434 | |
435 Define C_SWITCH_MACHINE to be +X to make a version of Emacs that | |
436 runs on both 68010 and 68020 based HP/UX's. | |
437 | |
438 Define HPUX_68010 if you are using the new assembler, for | |
439 a system that has a 68010 without a 68881. This is to say, | |
440 a s200 (upgraded) or s310. | |
441 | |
442 Define the symbol HPUX_NET if you have the optional network features | |
443 that include the `netunam' system call. This is referred to as | |
444 Network Services (NS/9000) in HP literature. | |
445 | |
446 HP 9000 series 500: not supported. | |
447 | |
448 The series 500 has a seriously incompatible memory architecture | |
449 which relocates data in memory during execution of a program, | |
450 and support for it would be difficult to implement. | |
451 | |
452 HP 9000 series 700 or 800 (Spectrum) (hppa1.0-hp-hpux or hppa1.1-hp-hpux | |
453 or ...hpux9shr, or ...-nextstep) | |
454 | |
455 Use hppa1.1 for the 700 series and hppa1.0 for the 800 | |
456 series machines. (Emacs may not actually care which one you use.) | |
457 | |
458 Support for NextSTEP was added in 19.31. | |
459 | |
460 Emacs 20 may work on HPUX 10. You need patch PHSS_6202 to install | |
461 the Xaw and Xmu libraries. On HPUX 10.20 you may need to compile with GCC; | |
462 when Emacs was compiled with HP's C compiler, HP92453-01 A.10.32.03, | |
463 the subprocess features failed to work. | |
464 | |
465 19.26 is believed to work on HPUX 9 provided you compile with GCC. | |
466 As of version 19.16, Emacs was reported to build (using GCC) and run | |
467 on HP 9000/700 series machines running HP/UX versions 8.07 and 9.01. | |
468 The HP compiler is known to fail on some versions if you use +O3, | |
469 but it may work with lower optimization levels. | |
470 | |
471 Use hppa1.1-hp-hpux9shr to use shared libraries on HPUX version 9. | |
472 You may need to create the X libraries libXaw.a and libXmu.a from | |
473 the MIT X distribute, and you may need to edit src/Makefile's | |
474 definition of LIBXT to look like this: | |
475 | |
476 LIBXT= $(LIBW) -lXmu -lXt $(LIBXTR6) -lXext | |
477 | |
478 Some people report trouble using the GNU memory allocator under | |
479 HP/UX version 9. The problems often manifest as lots of ^@'s in the | |
480 buffer. | |
481 | |
482 We are told that these problems go away if you obtain the latest | |
483 patches for the HP/UX C compiler. James J Dempsey | |
484 <jjd@spserv.bbn.com> says that this set of versions works for him: | |
485 /bin/cc: | |
486 HP92453-01 A.09.28 HP C Compiler | |
487 /lib/ccom: | |

490 Ucode Code Generator - HP-UX.09.00.23.5 (patch) 2/18/93 | |
491 | |
492 For 700 series machines, the HP-UX patch needed is known as | |
493 PHSS_2653. (Perhaps for 800 series machines as well; we don't | |
494 know.) If you are on the Internet, you should be able to obtain | |
495 this patch by using telnet to access the machine | |
496 support.mayfield.hp.com and logging in as "hpslreg" and following | |
497 the instructions there. Or you may be able to use this | |
498 web site: | |
499 | |
500 HP Patch Server: http://support.mayfield.hp.com/patches/html/patches.html | |
501 HP Support Line: http://support.mayfield.hp.com | |
502 | |
503 Please do not ask FSF for further support on this. If you have any | |
504 trouble obtaining the patch, contact HP Software Support. | |
505 | |
506 If your buffer fills up with nulls (^@) at some point, it could well | |
507 be that problem. That problem does not happen when people use GCC | |
508 to compile Emacs. On the other hand, the HP compiler version 9.34 | |
509 was reported to work for the 19.26 pretest. 9.65 was also reported to work. | |
510 | |
511 If you turn on the DSUSP character (delayed suspend), | |
512 Emacs 19.26 does not know how to turn it off on HPUX. | |
513 You need to turn it off manually. | |
514 | |
515 If you are running HP/UX release 8.0 or later, you need the optional | |
516 "C/ANSI C" software in order to build Emacs (older releases of HP/UX | |
517 do not require any special software). If the file "/etc/filesets/C" | |
518 exists on your machine, you have this software, otherwise you do not. | |

25852 | 568 At last report, Emacs didn't run well on terminals. Informed |
569 persons say that the tty VMIN and VTIME settings have been | |
570 corrupted; if you have a fix, please send it to us. | |
571 | |
572 Compiling with -O using the IBM compiler has been known | |
573 to make Emacs work incorrectly. It's reported that on | |
574 AIX 3.2.5 with an IBM compiler earlier than 1.03.00.14, | |
575 cc -O fails for some files. You need to install any | |
576 PTF containing APAR #IX42810 to bring the compiler to | |
577 the 1.03.00.14 level to allow optimized compiles. | |
578 | |
579 There are reports that IBM compiler versions earlier than 1.03.00.02 | |
580 fail even without -O. However, another report said that compiler | |
581 version 1.02.01.00 did work, on AIX 3.2.4, with Emacs 19.31. | |
582 | |
583 As of 19.11, if you strip the Emacs executable, it ceases to work. | |
584 | |
585 If you are using AIX 3.2.3, you may get a core dump when loading | |
586 ange-ftp. You may be able to fix the problem by defining LIBS_TERMCAP | |
587 as -ltermcap -lcurses. Please tell us if this fails to work. | |
588 | |
589 If anyone can fix the above problems, or confirm that they don't happen | |
590 with certain versions of various programs, we would appreciate it. | |

595 19.22 is reported to work under bsd. We don't know about AIX. | |
596 | |
597 On BSD, if you have trouble, try compiling with a different compiler. | |
598 | |
599 On AIX, the file /usr/lib/samples/hft/hftctl.c must be compiled into | |
600 hftctl.o, with this result left in the src directory (hftctl.c is | |
601 part of the standard AIX distribution). | |
602 | |
603 window.c must not be compiled with -O on AIX. | |

615 a Qbus 68010 system. Has not been tried on `WorkStation' `Cluster | |
616 Compute Node' `Cluster WorkStation' or `Server Node' (Love the | |
617 StudLYCaps) | |
618 | |
619 Compilation with -O is rumored to break something. | |
620 | |
621 On recent system versions, you may need to undefine the macro UMAX | |
622 in `lib-src/loadst.c' and `src/getpagesize.h'. They stupidly defined this | |
623 in a system header file, which confuses Emacs (which thinks that UMAX | |
624 indicates the Umax operating system). | |

635 In the above configurations, * means that the manufacturer's name | |
636 you specify does not matter, and you can use any name you like | |
637 (but it should not contain any dashes or stars). | |
638 | |
639 When using the ISC configurations, be sure to specify the isc | |
640 version number - for example, if you're running ISC 3.0, use | |
641 i386-unknown-isc3.0 as your configuration name. | |
642 Use i386-*-esix for Esix; Emacs runs as of version 19.6. | |
643 Use i386-*-linux-gnu for GNU/Linux systems; Emacs runs as of version 19.26. | |
644 Use i386-intsys-sysv for Integrated Solutions 386 machines. | |
645 It may also be correct for Microport systems. | |
646 Use i386-*-sco3.2v4 for SCO 3.2v4; Emacs runs as of version 19.26. | |
647 | |
648 On GNU/Linux systems, Emacs 19.23 was said to work properly with libc | |
649 version 4.5.21, but not with 4.5.19. If your system uses QMAGIC | |
650 for the executable format, you must edit config.h to define LINUX_QMAGIC. | |
651 | |
652 On GNU/Linux, configure may fail to put these definitions in config.h: | |
653 | |
654 #define HAVE_GETTIMEOFDAY | |
655 #define HAVE_MKDIR | |
656 #define HAVE_RMDIR | |
657 #define HAVE_XSCREENNUMBEROFSCREEN | |
658 | |
659 To work around the problem, add those definitions by hand. | |
30454 | 660 It is possible that this problem happens only with X11R6. |
661 Newer system versions have fixed it. | |

663 The 19.26 pretest was reported to work on SVR4.3 and on Freebsd. | |

665 19.29 is reported to crash when using Motif on Solaris 2.5. | |
666 The reasons are not yet known. | |

668 Use i386-*-bsdiN for BSDI BSD/OS version N; Emacs runs as of version 19.23. | |
669 In some system versions, `make' is broken; use GNU make instead. | |
670 Shell bugs in version 1.0 of BSD/OS cause configure | |
671 to do the wrong thing with --with-x-toolkit; the workaround is to edit | |
672 configure to run another shell such as bash. | |
673 | |
674 For System V release 3, use i386-*-sysv3. | |
675 For System V release 4, use i386-*-sysv4. | |
676 For System V release 4.2, use i386-*-sysv4.2. | |

681 | |
682 On 386bsd, NetBSD and FreeBSD, at one time, it was necessary to use | |
683 GNU make, not the system's make. Assuming it's installed as gmake, | |
684 do `gmake install MAKE=gmake'. However, more recently it is | |
685 reported that using the system Make on NetBSD 1.3.1 works ok. | |
686 | |
687 If you are using System V release 4.2, you may find that `cc -E' | |
688 puts spurious spaces in `src/xmakefile'. If that happens, | |
689 specify CPP=/lib/cpp as an option when you run make. | |
690 There is no problem if you compile with GCC. | |
691 | |
692 Note that use of Linux with GCC 2.4 and the DLL 4.4 libraries | |
693 requires the experimental "net 2" network patches (no relation to | |
694 Berkeley Net 2). There is a report that (some version of) Linux | |
695 requires including `/usr/src/linux/include/linux' in buffer.c | |
696 but no coherent explanation of why that might be so. If it is so, | |
697 in current versions of Linux, something else should probably be changed. | |
698 | |
699 Some sysV.3 systems seem to have bugs in `opendir'; | |
700 for them, alter `config.h' to define NONSYSTEM_DIR_LIBRARY | |
701 and undefine SYSV_SYSTEM_DIR. | |
702 | |
703 If you use optimization on V.3, you may need the option -W2,'-y 0' | |
704 to prevent certain faulty optimization. | |
705 | |
706 On 386/ix, to link with shared libraries, add #define USG_SHARED_LIBRARIES | |
707 to config.h. | |
708 | |
709 On SCO, there are problems in regexp matching when Emacs is compiled | |
710 with the system compiler. The compiler version is "Microsoft C | |
711 version 6", SCO 4.2.0h Dev Sys Maintenance Supplement 01/06/93; | |
712 Quick C Compiler Version 1.00.46 (Beta). The solution is to compile | |
713 with GCC. | |
714 | |
715 On ISC systems (2.02 and more recent), don't try to use the versions | |
716 of X that come with the system; use XFree86 instead. | |
717 | |
718 There is no consistency in the handling of certain system header files | |
719 on V.3. | |
720 | |
721 Some versions have sys/sioctl.h, and require it in sysdep.c. | |
722 But some versions do not have sys/sioctl.h. | |
723 For a given version of the system, this may depend on whether you have | |
724 X Windows or TCP/IP. Define or undefine NO_SIOCTL_H in config.h | |
725 according to whether you have the file. | |
726 | |
727 Likewise, some versions have been known to need sys/ttold.h, sys/stream.h, | |
728 and sys/ptem.h included in sysdep.c. If your system has these files, | |
729 try defining NEED_PTEM_H in config.h if you have trouble without it. | |
730 | |
731 You may find that adding -I/usr/X/include or -I/usr/netinclude or both | |
732 to CFLAGS avoids compilation errors on certain systems. | |
733 | |
734 Some versions convince sysdep.c to try to use `struct tchars' | |
735 but define `struct tc' instead; add `#define tchars tc' | |
736 to config.h to solve this problem. | |
737 | |
738 Iris 2500 and Iris 2500 Turbo (m68k-sgi-iris3.5 or m68k-sgi-iris3.6) | |
739 | |
740 Version 18 was said to work; use m68k-sgi-iris3.5 for system version 2.5 | |
741 and m68k-sgi-iris3.6 for system version 3.6. | |
742 Note that the 3030 is the same as the Iris 2500 Turbo. | |
743 | |
744 Iris 4D (mips-sgi-irix[456].*) | |
745 | |
31927 | 746 You can build a 64-bit executable (with larger maximum buffer size) |
747 on Irix 6.5 by specifying the 64-bit ABI using the `-64' compiler | |
748 flag or otherwise (see cc(1)). This may work on earlier Irix 6 | |
749 systems if you edit src/s/irix6-0.h following irix6-5.h. | |

25852 | 758 The 19.26 pretest was reported to work on IRIX 4.0.5 and 5.2. |
759 19.23 was reported to work on IRIX 5.2, but you may need to install | |
760 the "compiler_dev.hdr.internal" subsystem in order to compile unexelfsgi.c. | |
761 19.22 was known to work on all Silicon Graphics machines running | |
762 IRIX 4.0.5 or IRIX 5.1. | |
763 | |
764 Compiling with -O using IRIX compilers prior to 3.10.1 may not work. | |
765 Don't use -O or use GCC instead. | |
766 | |
767 Most IRIX 3.3 systems do not have an ANSI C compiler, but a few do. | |
768 Compile Emacs 18 with the -cckr switch on these machines. | |
769 | |
770 There is a bug in IRIX 3.3 that can sometimes leave ptys owned by root | |
771 with a permission of 622. This causes malfunctions in use of | |
772 subprocesses of Emacs. Irix versions 4.0 and later with GNU Emacs | |
773 versions 18.59 and later fix this bug. | |
774 | |
775 Masscomp (m68k-masscomp-rtu) | |
776 | |
777 18.36 worked on a 5500DP running RTU v3.1a and compiler version 3.2 | |
778 with minor fixes that are included in 18.37. However, bizarre behavior | |
779 was reported for 18.36 on a Masscomp (model and version unknown but probably | |
780 a 68020 system). The report sounds like a compiler bug. | |
781 | |
782 A compiler bug affecting statements like | |
783 unsigned char k; unsigned char *p;... x = p[k]; | |
784 has been reported for "C version 1.2 under RTU 3.1". We do not wish | |
785 to take the time to install the numerous workarounds required to | |
786 compensate for this bug. | |
787 | |
788 For RTU version 3.1, define FIRST_PTY_LETTER to be 'p' in `src/s/rtu.h' | |
789 (or #undef and redefine it in config.h) so that ptys will be used. | |
790 | |
791 GNU Emacs is said to have no chance of compiling on RTU versions | |
792 prior to v3.0. | |
793 | |
794 Megatest (m68k-megatest-bsd) | |
795 | |
796 Emacs 15 worked; do not have any reports about Emacs 16 or 17 | |
797 but any new bugs are probably not difficult. | |
798 | |
799 Mips (mips-mips-riscos, mips-mips-riscos4.0, or mips-mips-bsd) | |
800 | |
801 The C compiler on Riscos 4.51 dumps core trying to optimize | |
802 parts of Emacs. Try without optimization or try GCC. | |
803 | |
804 Meanwhile, the linker on that system returns success even if | |
805 there are undefined symbols; as a result, configure gets the | |
806 wrong answers to various questions. No work-around is known | |
807 except to edit src/config.h by hand to indicate which functions | |
808 don't exist. | |
809 | |
810 Use mips-mips-riscos4.0 for RISCOS version 4. | |
811 Use mips-mips-bsd with the BSD world. | |
812 | |
813 Note that the proper configuration names for DECstations are | |
814 mips-dec-ultrix and mips-dec-osf. | |
815 | |
816 If you are compiling with GCC, then you must run fixincludes; | |
817 the alternative of using -traditional won't work because | |
818 the definition of SIGN_EXTEND_CHAR uses the keyword `signed'. | |
819 | |
820 If the SYSV world is the default, then you probably need the following | |
821 line in etc/Makefile: | |
822 | |
823 CFLAGS= -g -systype bsd43 | |
824 | |
825 Some operating systems on MIPS machines give SIGTRAP for division by | |
826 zero instead of the usual signals. The only real solution is to fix | |
827 the system to give a proper signal. | |
828 | |
829 In the meantime, you can change init_data in data.c if you wish. | |
830 Change it to handle SIGTRAP as well as SIGFPE. But this will have a | |
831 great disadvantage: you will not be able to run Emacs under a | |
832 debugger. I think crashing on division by zero is a lesser problem. | |
833 | |
834 dsg@mitre.org reported needing to use --x-libraries=/bsd43/usr/lib | |
835 on a riscos4bsd site. But it is not clear whether this is needed in | |
836 general or only because of quirks on a particular site. | |
837 | |
838 National Semiconductor 32000 (ns32k-ns-genix) | |
839 | |
840 This is for a complete machine from National Semiconductor, | |
841 running Genix. Changes merged in version 19. | |
842 | |
843 NCR Tower 32 (m68k-ncr-sysv2 or m68k-ncr-sysv3) | |
844 | |
845 If you are running System V release 2, use m68k-ncr-sysv2. | |
846 If you are running System V release 3, use m68k-ncr-sysv3. | |
847 | |
848 These both worked as of 18.56. If you change `src/ymakefile' so that | |
849 CFLAGS includes C_OPTIMIZE_SWITCH rather than C_DEBUG_SWITCH, check | |
850 out the comments in `src/m/tower32.h' (for System V release 2) or | |
851 `src/m/tower32v3.h' (for System V release 3) about this. | |
852 | |
853 There is a report that compilation with -O did not work with 18.54 | |
854 under System V release 2. | |
855 | |
856 NCR Intel system (i386-ncr-sysv4.2) | |
857 | |
858 This system works in 19.31, but if you don't link it with GNU ld, | |
859 you may need to set LD_RUN_PATH at link time to specify where | |
860 to find the X libraries. | |
861 | |
862 NEC EWS4800 (mips-nec-sysv4) | |
863 | |
864 This system works in 20.4, but you should use the compiler | |
865 /usr/abiccs/bin/cc (MIPS ABI MODE). | |
866 | |
867 NeXT (m68k-next-nextstep) | |
868 | |
869 Emacs 19 has not been tested extensively yet, but it seems to work | |
870 in a NeXTStep 3.0 terminal window, and under the X server called | |
871 co-Xist. You may need to specify -traditional when src/Makefile | |
872 builds xmakefile. | |
873 | |
874 NeXT users might want to implement direct operation with NeXTStep, | |
875 but from the point of view of the GNU project, that is a | |
876 distraction. | |
877 | |
878 Thanks to Thorsten Ohl for working on the NeXT port of Emacs 19. | |
879 | |
880 Nixdorf Targon 31 (m68k-nixdorf-sysv) | |
881 | |
882 Machine description file for version 17 is included in 18 | |
883 but whether it works is not known. | |
884 `src/unexec.c' bombs if compiled with -O. | |
885 Note that the "Targon 35" is really a Pyramid. | |
886 | |

891 Paragon OSF/1 (i860-intel-osf1) | |
892 | |
893 Changes merged in 19.29. | |
894 | |
895 There is a bug in OSF/1 make which claims there is a syntax error | |
896 in the src/xmakefile. You can successfully build emacs with: | |
897 | |
898 pmake MAKE=pmake | |
899 | |

909 | |
910 Minor changes merged in 19.1. | |
911 | |
912 Pyramid (pyramid-pyramid-bsd) | |
913 | |
914 The 19.26 pretest was observed to work on OSx 5.0, but it is necessary | |
915 to edit gmalloc.c. You must add #include <sys/types.h> at the top, | |
916 and delete the #define for size_t. | |
917 | |
918 You need to build Emacs in the Berkeley universe with | |
919 the `ucb' command, as in `ucb make' or `ucb build-install'. | |
920 | |
921 In OSx 4.0, it seems necessary to add the following two lines | |
922 to `src/m/pyramid.h': | |
923 #define _longjmp longjmp | |
924 #define _setjmp setjmp | |
925 | |
926 In Pyramid system 2.5 there has been a compiler bug making | |
927 Emacs crash just after screen-splitting with Qnil containing 0. | |
928 A compiler that fixes this is Pyramid customer number 8494, | |
929 internal number 1923. | |
930 | |
931 Some versions of the pyramid compiler get fatal | |
932 errors when the -gx compiler switch is used; if this | |
933 happens to you, change `src/m/pyramid.h' to define | |
934 C_DEBUG_SWITCH with an empty definition. | |
935 | |
936 Some old system versions may require you to define PYRAMID_OLD | |
937 in when alloca.s is preprocessed, in order to define _longjmp and _setjmp. | |
938 | |
939 Sequent Balance (ns32k-sequent-bsd4.2 or ns32k-sequent-bsd4.3) | |
940 | |
941 Emacs 18.51 worked on system version 3.0. 18.52 is said to work. | |
942 Delete some lines at the end of `src/m/sequent.h' for earlier system | |
943 versions. | |
944 | |
945 Sequent Symmetry (i386-sequent-bsd, i386-sequent-ptx, i386-sequent-ptx4) | |
946 | |
947 19.33 has changes to support ptx 4 (a modified SVR4). | |
948 | |
949 Emacs 19 should work on Dynix (BSD). However, if you compile with | |
950 the Sequent compiler, you may find Emacs does not restore the | |
951 terminal settings on exit. If this happens, compile with GCC. | |
952 | |
953 Emacs 19.27 contains patches that should support | |
954 DYNIX/ptx 1.4 and 2.1 with the native cc compiler. | |
955 | |
956 GCC can't compile src/process.c due to a non-standard Sequent asm | |
957 keyword extension supported by cc and used for the network byte/word | |
958 swapping functions in the PTX /usr/include/netinet/in.h file. GCC | |
959 2.5.8 includes the file <sys/byteorder.h> which can be included into | |
960 netinet/in.h to perform these byte/word swapping functions in the | |
961 same manner. Patches have been submitted to the FSF against GCC | |
962 2.6.0 to fix this problem and allow Emacs to be built with GCC. | |
963 | |
964 If your machine does not have TCP/IP installed, you will have to edit the | |
965 src/s/ptx.h file and comment out #define TCPIP_INSTALLED. | |
966 | |
967 Siemens Nixdorf RM600 and RM400 (mips-siemens-sysv4) | |
968 | |
969 Changes merged in 19.29. This configuration should also work for | |
970 Pyramid MIS Server running DC-OSX 1.x. The version configured with | |
971 `--with-x' works without any modifications, but `--with-x-toolkit' | |
972 works only if the Athena library and the Toolkit library are linked | |
973 statically. For this, edit `src/Makefile' after the `configure' run | |
974 and modify the lines with `-lXaw' and `-lXt' as follows: | |
975 | |
976 LIBW= /usr/lib/libXaw.a | |
977 LIBXT= $(LIBW) -lXmu /usr/lib/libXt.a $(LIBXTR6) -lXext | |
978 | |
979 In addition, `--with-x-toolkit=motif' works only | |
980 if the Motif library and the Toolkit library are linked statically. | |
981 To do this, edit `src/Makefile' after the `configure' run | |
982 and modify the lines with `-lXm' and `-lXt' as follows: | |
983 | |
984 LIBW= /usr/lib/libXm.a /usr/ccs/lib/libgen.a | |
985 LIBXT= $(LIBW) -lXmu /usr/lib/libXt.a $(LIBXTR6) -lXext | |
986 | |
987 SONY News (m68k-sony-bsd4.2 or m68k-sony-bsd4.3) | |
988 | |
989 18.52 worked. Use m68k-sony-bsd4.3 for system release 3. | |
990 | |
991 SONY News 3000 series (RISC NEWS) (mips-sony-bsd) | |
992 | |
993 The 19.26 pretest is reported to work. | |
994 | |
995 Some versions of the operating system give SIGTRAP for division by zero | |
996 instead of the usual signals. This causes division by zero | |
997 to make Emacs crash. The system should be fixed to give the proper signal. | |
998 Changing Emacs is not a proper solution, because it would prevent | |
999 Emacs from working under any debugger. But you can change init_data | |
1000 in data.c if you wish. | |
1001 | |
1002 Stardent i860 (i860-stardent-sysv4.0) | |

1012 Works (most recent news for 18.30) on their release 2.0. | |
1013 For release 2.2, see the end of `src/m/stride.h'. | |
1014 It may be possible to run on their V.1 system but changes | |
1015 in the s- file would be needed. | |
1016 | |
1017 Sun 3, Sun 4 (sparc), Sun 386 (m68k-sun-sunos, sparc-sun-sunos, i386-sun-sunos, | |

30454 | 1019 i386-sun-solaris2.*, sparc*-*-linux-gnu) |
1020 | |
31927 | 1021 To build a 64-bit Emacs (with larger maximum buffer size and |
1022 including large file support) on a Solaris system which supports | |
1023 64-bit executables, use the Sun compiler, configuring something like | |
1024 this (see the cc documentation for information on 64-bit | |
36091 | 1025 compilation): env CC="cc -xarch=v9" ./configure |
30454 | 1026 |
1027 As of version 2.95, GCC doesn't support the 64-bit ABI properly, but | |

30454 | 1043 Emacs 20.5 and later work on SPARC GNU/Linux with the 32-bit ABI. |
1044 As of release 2.95, GCC doesn't work properly with the 64-bit ABI | |
1045 (applicable on UltraSPARC), but that isn't the default mode. | |
25852 | 1046 |
1047 Emacs 20.3 fails to build on Solaris 2.5 if you use GCC 2.7.2.3. | |
1048 Installing GCC 2.8 fixes the problem. | |
1049 | |
1050 19.32 works on Solaris 2.4 and 2.5. On Solaris 2.5 | |
1051 you may need one of these patches to prevent Emacs from crashing | |
1052 when it starts up: | |
1053 103093-03: [README] SunOS 5.5: kernel patch (2140557 bytes) | |
1054 102832-01: [README] OpenWindows 3.5: Xview Jumbo Patch (4181613 bytes) | |
1055 103242-04: [README] SunOS 5.5: linker patch (595363 bytes) | |
1056 | |
1057 There are reports that using SunSoft cc with -xO4 -xdepend produces | |
1058 bad code for some part of Emacs. | |
1059 | |
1060 Emacs works ok Sunos 4.1.x | |
1061 provided you completely replace your C shared library | |
1062 using one of the SunOS 4.1.x jumbo replacement patches from Sun. | |
1063 Here are the patch numbers for Sunos 4.1.3: | |
1064 100890-10 SunOS 4.1.3: domestic libc jumbo patch | |
1065 100891-10 SunOS 4.1.3: international libc jumbo patch | |
1066 | |
1067 Some people report that Emacs crashes immediately on startup when | |
1068 used with a non-X terminal, but we think this is due to compiling | |
1069 with GCC and failing to use GCC's "fixed" system header files. | |
1070 | |
1071 Some Sun versions of X windows use the clipboard, not the selections, | |
1072 for transferring text between clients. The Cut, Paste and Copy items | |
1073 in the menu bar Edit menu work with the clipboard. | |
1074 | |
1075 It's important to include the SunOS version number in the | |
1076 configuration name. For example, for SunOS release 4.0 on a Sun 3, | |
1077 use `m68k-sun-sunos4.0'; for SunOS release 4.1 on a Sparc, use | |
1078 `sparc-sun-sunos4.1'. For SunOS release 4.1.3 on a Sparc, use | |
1079 `sparc-sun-sunos4.1.3'. Note that shared libraries are now | |
1080 used by default on SunOS 4.1. | |
1081 | |
1082 A user reported irreproducible segmentation faults when using 19.29 | |
1083 on Solaris 2.3 and 2.4 after compiling it with the Sun compiler. | |
1084 The problem went away when GCC 2.7.0 was used instead. We do not know | |
1085 whether anything in Emacs is partly to blame for this. | |
1086 | |
1087 X11R6 is set up to make shared libraries only, on Sunos 4. | |
1088 Therefore, in order to link Emacs, you need to create static X libraries. | |
1089 To do this, rebuild X11 after setting | |
1090 #define ForceNormalLib YES | |
1091 #define SeparateSharedCompile YES | |
1092 in site.def (after #ifdef AfterVendorCF). | |
1093 | |
1094 Use `m68k' for the 68000-based Sun boxes, `sparc' for Sparcstations, | |
1095 and `i386' for Sun Roadrunners. i386 calls for Sunos4.0. | |
1096 | |
1097 If you compile with Sun's ANSI compiler acc, you need additional options | |
1098 when linking temacs, such as | |
1099 /usr/lang/SC2.0.1/values-Xt.o -L/usr/lang/SC2.0.1/cg87 -L/usr/lang/SC2.0.1 | |
1100 (those should be added just before the libraries) and you need to | |
1101 add -lansi just before -lc. The precise file names depend on the | |
1102 compiler version, so we cannot easily arrange to supply them. | |
1103 | |
1104 On SunOS 4.1.1, do not use /usr/5bin/cc. You can use gcc or/usr/bin/cc. | |
1105 Make sure the environment variable LD_LIBRARY_PATH is not defined. | |
1106 | |
1107 Some people report crashes on SunOS 4.1.3 if SYSTEM_MALLOC is defined. | |
1108 Others have reported that Emacs works if SYSTEM_MALLOC is defined, and not | |
1109 if it is undefined. So far we do not know why results vary in this way. | |
1110 The sources are set up so that SYSTEM_MALLOC is defined; if that crashes, | |
1111 or if you want the benefit of the relocating memory allocator, you can | |
1112 try enabling the #undef SYSTEM_MALLOC in src/s/sunos4-1-3.h. | |
1113 | |
1114 On Solaris 2, you need to install patch 100947-02 to fix a system bug. | |
1115 Presumably this patch comes from Sun. You must alter the definition of | |
1116 LD_SWITCH_SYSTEM if your X11 libraries are not in /usr/openwin/lib. | |
1117 You must make sure that /usr/ucblib is not in your LD_LIBRARY_PATH. | |
1118 | |
1119 On Solaris 2.2, with a multiprocessor SparcCenter 1000, Emacs 19.17 is | |
1120 reported to hang sometimes if it exits while it has one or more | |
1121 subprocesses (e.g. the `wakeup' subprocess used by `display-time'). | |
1122 Emacs and its subprocesses become zombies, and in their zombie state | |
1123 slow down their host and disable rlogin and telnet. This is most | |
1124 likely due to a bug in Solaris 2.2's multiprocessor support, | |
1125 rather than an Emacs bug. | |
1126 | |
1127 On Solaris, do not use /usr/ucb/cc. Use /opt/SUNWspro/bin/cc. Make | |
1128 sure that /usr/ccs/bin and /opt/SUNWspro/bin are in your PATH before | |
1129 /usr/ucb. (Most free software packages have the same requirement on | |
1130 Solaris.) | |
1131 | |
1132 If you have trouble using open-network-stream, get the distribution | |
1133 of `bind' (the BSD name-server), build libresolv.a, and link Emacs | |
1134 with -lresolv, by copying the #definition of LIBS_SYSTEM in | |
1135 src/s/sunos4-1.h to src/config.h. This problem is due to obsolete | |
1136 software in the nonshared standard library. | |
1137 | |
1138 If you want to use SunWindows, define HAVE_SUN_WINDOWS | |
1139 in config.h to enable a special interface called `emacstool'. | |
1140 The definition must *precede* the #include "machine.h". | |
1141 System version 3.2 is required for this facility to work. | |
1142 | |
1143 We recommend that you instead use the X window system, which | |
1144 has technical advantages, is an industry standard, and is also | |
1145 free software. The FSF does not support the SunWindows code; | |
1146 we installed it only on the understanding we would not let it | |
1147 divert our efforts from what we think is important. | |
1148 | |
1149 If you are compiling for X windows, and the X window library was | |
1150 compiled to use the 68881, then you must edit config.h according | |
1151 the comments at the end of `src/m/sun3.h'. | |
1152 | |
1153 Note that Emacs on a Sun is not really as big as it looks. | |
1154 As dumped, it includes around 200k of zeros between the | |
1155 original text section and the original data section | |
1156 (now remapped as part of the text). These are never | |
1157 swapped in. | |
1158 | |
1159 To build a single Emacs that will run on Sun 2 and Sun 3 | |
1160 HARDWARE, just build it on the Sun 2. | |
1161 | |
1162 On Sunos 4.1.3, the word is that Emacs can loop infinitely | |
1163 on startup with X due perhaps to a bug in Sunos. Installing all of | |
1164 these Sun patches fixes the problem. We don't know which of them | |
1165 are really relevant. | |
1166 | |
1167 100075-11 100224-06 100347-03 100482-05 100557-02 100623-03 100804-03 | |

1173 | |
1174 Tadpole 68K (m68k-tadpole-sysv) | |
1175 | |
1176 Changes merged in 19.1. | |
1177 | |
1178 You may need to edit Makefile to change the variables LIBDIR and | |
1179 BINDIR from /usr/local to /usr/contrib. | |
1180 | |
1181 To give movemail access to /usr/mail, you may need to execute | |
1182 | |
1183 chmod 2755 etc/movemail; chgrp mail etc/movemail | |
1184 | |
1185 Tahoe (tahoe-tahoe-bsd4.2 or tahoe-tahoe-bsd4.3) | |
1186 | |
1187 18.52 was known to work on some Tahoes, but a compiler bug intervenes | |
1188 on others. Some Emacs versions have worked in Unisys 1r4 | |
1189 (not in 1r3) and CCI I.21. | |
1190 | |
1191 If you have trouble compiling `lib-src/loadst.c', turn off the definition | |
1192 of DKSTAT_HEADER_FILE in `src/m/tahoe.h'. | |
1193 | |
1194 Tandem Integrity S2 (mips-tandem-sysv) | |
1195 | |
1196 Changes merged in 18.56 but subprocess support is turned off. | |
1197 You will probably want to see if you can make subprocesses work. | |
1198 | |
1199 You must edit `lib-src/Makefile' to define LOADLIBES = -mld. | |
1200 | |
1201 Tektronix XD88 (m88k-tektronix-sysv3*) | |
1202 | |
1203 The 19.26 pretest was reported to work. | |
1204 Minor changes merged in 19.19. | |
1205 | |
1206 Tektronix 16000 box (6130?) (ns16k-tektronix-bsd) | |
1207 | |
1208 Emacs 17.61 worked. | |
1209 | |
1210 Tektronix 4300 (m68k-tektronix-bsd) | |
1211 | |
1212 Emacs 19.26 pretest reported to work. | |
1213 | |
1214 Titan P2 or P3 (titan-titan-sysv) | |
1215 | |
1216 Changes probably merged in version 19. | |
1217 | |
1218 Ustation E30 (SS5E) (m68k-unisys-unipl) | |
1219 | |
1220 Changes merged in 18.52; don't know whether they work. | |
1221 | |
1222 Vaxen running Berkeley Unix (vax-dec-bsd4.1, vax-dec-bsd4.2, vax-dec-bsd4.3), | |
1223 Ultrix (vax-dec-ultrix), | |
1224 System V (vax-dec-sysv0, vax-dec-sysv2), or | |
1225 VMS (vax-dec-vms) | |
1226 | |
1227 Works. | |
1228 | |
1229 See under Ultrix for problems using X windows on Ultrix (vax-dec-ultrix). | |
1230 | |
1231 18.27 worked on System V rel 2 (vax-dec-sysv2). | |
1232 | |
1233 18.36 worked on System V rel 0 (vax-dec-sysv0). | |
1234 | |
1235 Richard Levitte <levitte@e.kth.se> distributes a set of patches to | |
1236 Emacs 18.59 to make it work nicely under VMS. Emacs 19 probably | |
1237 won't work very well, or even compile. Levitte is working on a | |
1238 port, so these problems should be fixed in the near future. | |
1239 | |
1240 Whitechapel MG1 (ns16k-whitechapel-?) | |
1241 | |
1242 May work. Supposedly no changes were needed except in `src/m/mg1.h' | |
1243 file. I do not know what Unix version runs on them. | |
1244 | |
1245 Wicat (m68k-wicat-sysv) | |
1246 | |
1247 Changes merged as of 18.6; whether they work is unknown. | |
1248 See comments in `src/m/wicat.h' for things you should change | |
1249 depending on the system and compiler version you have. | |
1250 | |
1251 Here are notes about some of the systems supported: | |
1252 | |
1253 Berkeley 4.1 (bsd4.1) | |
1254 | |
1255 Works on vaxes. | |
1256 | |
1257 Berkeley 4.2 (bsd4.2) | |
1258 | |
1259 Works on several machines. | |
1260 | |
1261 Berkeley 4.3 (bsd4.3) | |
1262 | |
1263 Works, on Vaxes at least. | |
1264 | |
1265 Esix | |
1266 | |
1267 The following was written for Emacs 18.59 and has been | |
1268 slightly adapted for Emacs 19. It may need more change to be correct. | |
1269 | |
1270 Use s/usg5-4.h for Esix System V 4.0.[34] systems if you also have | |
1271 XFree86. If you insist on using the Esix X Window libraries, good | |
1272 luck. s/esix5r4.h provides a starting point, but doesn't seem to | |
1273 work consistently. The basic problems involve the need to load | |
1274 -lX11 *last* in the link command, and even then some things break. | |
1275 You get best results by installing XFree86 and forgetting about the | |
1276 Esix stuff unless you want to run IXI xdt3, which really only needs | |
1277 the Esix X11 shared libraries. | |
1278 | |
1279 To compile with XFree86, make sure that your LD_LIBRARY_PATH | |
1280 contains /usr/X386/lib. Be careful if you also have the Esix X | |
1281 Window libraries that /usr/X386/lib appears *first* in the | |
1282 LD_LIBRARY_PATH. Then define C_SWITCH_X_SYSTEM -I/usr/X386/include. | |
1283 | |
1284 Linux (actually GNU/Linux) | |
1285 | |
1286 Most of the complete systems which use the Linux kernel are close | |
1287 enough to the GNU system to be considered variant GNU systems. We | |
1288 call them "Linux-based GNU systems," or GNU/Linux for short. | |
1289 | |
1290 It is not coincidence that many of the other components used with | |
1291 Linux--including GNU Emacs--were developed specifically for the GNU | |
1292 project. The GNU project was launched in 1984 to develop a free | |
1293 complete Unix-like operating system. To reach this goal, we had to | |
1294 develop whatever system components were not available as freely | |
1295 redistributable software from some other source. | |
1296 | |
1297 The GNU project wants users of GNU/Linux systems to be aware of how | |
1298 these systems relate to the GNU project, because that will help | |
1299 spread the GNU idea that software should be free--and thus encourage | |
1300 people to write more free software. See the file LINUX-GNU in this | |
1301 directory for more explanation. | |
1302 | |
1303 Microport | |
1304 | |
1305 See under "Intel 386". | |
1306 | |
1307 MSDOS | |
1308 | |
1309 For installation on MSDOS, see the file INSTALL (search for `MSDOG', | |
1310 near the end of the file). See the "MS-DOS" chapter of the manual | |
1311 for information about using Emacs on MSDOS. | |
1312 | |
1313 SCO Unix | |
1314 If you have TCP but not X, you need to edit src/s/sco4.h | |
1315 to define HAVE_SOCKETS. | |
1316 | |
1317 If you are using MMDF instead of sendmail, you need to remove | |
1318 /usr/lib/sendmail or modify lisp/paths.el before compiling. | |
1319 lisp/paths.el (which is loaded during the build) will attempt to use | |
1320 sendmail if it exists. | |
1321 | |
1322 If you are using SMAIL, you need to define the macro | |
1323 SMAIL in config.h. | |
1324 | |
1325 System V rel 0 (usg5.0) | |
1326 | |
1327 Works, on Vaxes and 3bxxx's. | |
1328 There are some problems in 18.37 due to shortnames/cccp problems: | |
1329 use the emacs 17 cpp if you have it. | |
1330 | |
1331 System V rel 2 (usg5.2) | |
1332 | |
1333 Works on various machines. | |
1334 On some (maybe all) machines the library -lPW exists and contains | |
1335 a version of `alloca'. On these machines, to use it, put | |
1336 #define HAVE_ALLOCA | |
1337 #define LIB_STANDARD -lPW -lc | |
1338 in the `src/m/MACHINENAME.h' file for the machine. | |
1339 | |
1340 If you find that the character Meta-DEL makes Emacs crash, | |
1341 find where function init_sys_modes in sysdep.c sets sg.c_cc[VQUIT] | |
1342 and make it store 7 there. I have as yet no evidence of whether | |
1343 this problem, known in HP/UX, exists in other system V versions. | |
1344 | |
1345 System V rel 2.2 (usg5.2.2) | |
1346 | |
1347 In 5.2.2 AT&T undid, incompatibly, their previous incompatible | |
1348 change to the way the nlist library is called. A different s- file | |
1349 is used to enable the other interface. | |
1350 | |
1351 They call themselves the right choice--can't they choose? | |
1352 | |
1353 Emacs version 18 unexec is currently not working properly | |
1354 on 5.2.2. Nobody knows why yet. A workaround is to define | |
1355 NO_REMAP. It is not yet known whether this applies to all | |
1356 machines running 5.2.2. | |
1357 | |
1358 System V rel 3 (usg5.3) | |
1359 | |
1360 Some versions of this system support ptys and BSD-style sockets. | |
1361 On such systems, you should define HAVE_PTYS and HAVE_SOCKETS in config.h. | |
1362 | |
1363 If you want to link Emacs with shared libraries, define | |
1364 USG_SHARED_LIBRARIES. | |
1365 | |
1366 You may have to add ANSI idempotence #-lines to your sys/types.h | |
1367 file to get Emacs to compile correctly. This may be necessary on | |
1368 other pre-ANSI systems as well. | |
1369 | |
1370 On an AT&T 6386WGS using System V Release 3.2 and X11R3, the X support | |
1371 cannot be made to work. Whether or not the GNU relocating malloc is | |
1372 used, the symptom is that the first call Emacs makes to sbrk(0) returns | |
1373 (char *)-1. Sorry, you're stuck with character-only mode. Try | |
1374 installing Xfree86 to fix this. | |
1375 | |
1376 System V rel 4.0.3 and 4.0.4 (usg5.4) | |
1377 | |
1378 Supported, including shared libraries for ELF, but ptys do not work | |
1379 because TIOCGPGRP fails to work on ptys (but Dell 2.2 seems to have | |
1380 fixed this). This failure is probably due to a misunderstanding of | |
1381 the consequences of the POSIX spec: many system designers mistakenly | |
1382 think that POSIX requires this feature to fail. This is untrue; | |
1383 ptys are an extension, and POSIX says that extensions *when used* | |
1384 may change the action of standard facilities in any fashion. | |
1385 | |
1386 If you get compilation errors about wrong number of | |
1387 arguments to getpgrp, define GETPGRP_NO_ARG. | |
1388 | |
1389 The standard C preprocessor may generate xmakefile incorrectly. However, | |
1390 /lib/cpp will work, so use `make CPP=/lib/cpp'. Standard cpp | |
1391 seems to work OK under Dell 2.2. | |
1392 | |
1393 Some versions 3 and earlier of V.4, on the Intel 386 and 860, had | |
1394 problems in the X11 libraries. These prevent Emacs from working | |
1395 with X. You can use Emacs with X provided your copy of X is based | |
1396 on X11 release 4 or newer, or is Dell's 2.2 (which is a 4.0.3). | |
1397 Unfortunately, the only way you can tell whether your X11 library is | |
1398 new enough is to try compiling Emacs to use X. If emacs runs, your | |
1399 X11 library is new enough. | |
1400 | |
1401 In this context, GSV4 and GSV4i are alternate names for X11R4. | |
1402 OL2.* is X11R3 based. OL3 is in between X11R3 and X11R4, and may or | |
1403 may not work, depending on who made the Unix system. If the library | |
1404 libXol is part of the X distribution, then you have X11R3 and Emacs | |
1405 won't work with X. | |
1406 | |
1407 Most versions of V.4 support sockets. If `/usr/lib/libsocket.so' | |
1408 exists, your system supports them. If yours does not, you must add | |
1409 #undef HAVE_SOCKETS in config.h, after the inclusion of s-usg5-4.h. | |
1410 (Any system that supports Internet should implement sockets.) | |
1411 | |
1412 Ultrix (bsd4.3) | |
1413 | |
1414 Recent versions of Ultrix appear to support the features of Berkeley 4.3. | |
1415 Ultrix was at the BSD 4.2 level for a long time after BSD 4.3 came out. | |
1416 | |
1417 Ultrix 3.0 has incompatibilities in its X library if you have the | |
1418 Ultrix version of X (UWS version 2.0). To solve them, you need to | |
1419 prevent XvmsAlloc.o in Xlib from being used. Israel Pinkas says: | |
1420 | |
1421 I added the following lines to config.h after the X defines: | |

1427 Then I ran the following: | |
1428 | |
1429 ar x /usr/lib/libc.a calloc.o | |
1430 | |
1431 The problem is said to be gone in UWS version 2.1. | |
1432 | |
1433 Uniplus 5.2 (unipl5.2) | |
1434 | |
1435 Works, on Dual machines at least. | |
1436 | |
1437 VMS (vmsM.N) | |
1438 | |
1439 Richard Levitte <levitte@e.kth.se> distributes a set of patches to | |
1440 Emacs 18.59 to make it work nicely under VMS. Emacs 19 probably | |
1441 won't work very well, or even compile. Levitte is working on a | |
1442 port, so these problems should be fixed in the near future. | |
1443 | |
1444 Note that Emacs for VMS is usually distributed in a special VMS | |
1445 distribution. See the file ../vms/VMSINSTALL for info on moving | |
1446 Unix distributions to VMS, and other VMS-related topics. | |

1453 Xenix (xenix) | |
1454 | |
1455 Should work in 18.50, but you will need to edit the files | |
1456 `lib-src/Makefile' and `src/ymakefile' | |
1457 (see the comments that mention "Xenix" for what to change.) | |
1458 Compiling Emacs with -O is said not to work. | |
1459 | |
1460 If you want Emacs to work with Smail (installed as /usr/bin/smail) | |
1461 then add the line #define SMAIL to config.h. | |
1462 | |
1463 The file etc/XENIX suggests some useful things to do to Xenix | |
1464 to make the Emacs meta key work. | |
