I downloaded the tar file emacs-24.3.tar.gz and I extracted it. I look at the installation instructions here:
You can run Emacs without any extra steps, but if you want icons in your Start Menu, or for Emacs to detect the image libraries that are already installed on your system as part of GTK, then you should run the program emacs-24.3\bin\addpm.exe.
How do I run Emacs?
And where is emacs-24\bin\addpm.exe
. In the folder emacs-24
there is no bin
folder. So how do I run emacs after installation?
To enter Emacs, type emacs at the shell prompt. When you want to leave Emacs for a short time, type a C-z and Emacs will be suspended.
Emacs is among the oldest free and open source projects still under development.
If Emacs is not installed already, you can install it by running (as root) a command such as ' dnf install emacs ' (Red Hat and derivatives; use ' yum ' in older distributions) or ' apt-get install emacs ' (Debian and derivatives). (Replace ' VERSION ' with the relevant version number, e.g., ' 28.1 '.)
Download windows binaries here:
http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/emacs/windows/
.tar.gz
s are usually linux sources, so you'll have to compile it if you download that.
