Simplify STARTFILES definition. * s/hpux10-20.h (START_FILES): Explicitly define here instead of relying on Makefile.in to define it. * s/cygwin.h (START_FILES): Likewise. * Makefile.in (STARTFILES): Remove conditional code, not needed anymore.

This directory contains source code for the parts of Emacs that are
written in Emacs Lisp.  *.el files are Emacs Lisp source, and the
corresponding *.elc files are byte-compiled versions.  Byte-compiled
files are architecture-independent.

The term subdirectory contains Lisp files that customize Emacs for
certain terminal types.  When Emacs starts, it checks the TERM
environment variable to get the terminal type and loads
`term/${TERM}.el' if it exists.

The other subdirectories hold Lisp packages grouped by their general
purpose.
