System Wide Component Installation

As root, unpack metree which creates a directory tree called jasspa and install into the /usr/share directory. i.e.

  cd /usr/share
  gtar zxvf /path-to-tarball/jasspa-metree-yyyymmdd.tar.gz

The directory /usr/share/jasspa should now exist. Add downloaded spelling dictionaries by unpacking into the /usr/share/jasspa/spell subdirectory.

Unpack the binary into the /usr/bin directory.

  gunzip -c /path-to-tarball/jasspa-me-apple-mac-10.3-yyyymmdd.gz > /usr/bin/me
  chmod a+rx /usr/bin/me

MicroEmacs may now be invoked from the command line or via a short cut. On the very first first execution follow the instructions on setting up your environment.

Single User Component Installation

Unpack metree in your home directory, this generates a directory tree called jasspa. Once unpacked then rename the directory to .jasspa.

  cd ~
  gtar zxvf /path-to-tarball/jasspa-metree-yyyymmdd.tar.gz
  mv jasspa .jasspa

Add downloaded spelling dictionaries by unpacking into the ~/.jasspa/spell subdirectory.

Install the binary into your local binary directory - we assume ~/bin i.e.

  gunzip -c /path-to-tarball/jasspa-me-apple-mac-10.3-yyyymmdd.gz > ~/bin/me
  chmod a+rx ~/bin/me

Assuming that the binary directory ~/bin is already on the users path then the installation is complete, otherwise the .bashrc or shell start-up file should be edited to include the path.

Now execute your favorite editor me and follow the instructions on setting up your environment.
