Hello, I have updated configure.usage. With these updates, one can use the elisp package Build again to build a daikon XEmacs. -- Added lots of `with-' prefixes to options. -- Installation options took always the next line as documentation. E.g.,--bindir was represented in Build, --datadir was missing, etc. Still missing: --with-zlib, --with-infodock, --with-native-sound-lib. I couldn't decide in which section I should put them, or if I should open a new section. Cheers, Joachim ChangeLog addition: 2005-11-02 Joachim Schrod <jschrod(a)acm.org&gt; * configure.usage: Update to current options of configure, to make elisp package Build work with daikon as well.
