I've compiled Emacs 24.3 into this computer. During this process, I've set the following variables: --with-x=no --prefix=/home/me/prefix/emacs-24.3 bindir=/home/me/bin Beyond these customizations, I think everything else is default. /home/me/bin/ is already in $PATH... I want to compile and install the Org-mode of orgmode.org's git repository... After cloning and switching to maint branch, I'm setting the following variables in local.mk generated by make config: EMACS = emacs prefix = /home/me/prefix lispdir= $(prefix)/emacs-24.3/share/emacs/24.3/lisp/org datadir = $(prefix)/emacs-24.3/share/emacs/24.3/etc/org infodir = $(prefix)/emacs-24.3/share/info Once these changes to local.mk have been made, I'm planning to install Org-mode by simply running "make install". In all, the command line sequence for installing and compiling Org-mode would be like: git clone git://orgmode.org/org-mode.git cd org-mode git checkout maint make config emacs local.mk (make above changes...) make install My questions are: For my Emacs set-up, are these local.mk settings good? Does the command line sequence make sense? Thanks!!!
