Well, I read most of the traffic on xemacs-beta. I do not recall having seen "./config.status --recheck; make beta" deprecated as the normal way to build an XEmacs beta. This is still the procedure as of CVS checked out 2.5 hours ago in etc/BETA. I always thought that was a good idea. People in active development do `make' and rebuild only out-of-date dependencies. `make beta' cleans out the cruft and makes sure of a clean build. -- University of Tsukuba Tennodai 1-1-1 Tsukuba 305-8573 JAPAN Institute of Policy and Planning Sciences Tel/fax: +81 (298) 53-5091 __________________________________________________________________________ __________________________________________________________________________ What are those two straight lines for?
