Pre-built macros tree for installation, includes macros and help information. You do not require the memacros bundle if this is downloaded.

System Wide Component Installation

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

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

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

Unpack the binary into the new directory.

  cd /usr/local/bin
  gunzip -c /path-to-tarball/jasspa-me-linux_2.x-yyyymmdd.gz > me
  chmod a+rx me
  

The installation is complete and you may now execute your favorite editor me.

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.

  cd ~/bin
  gunzip -c /path-to-tarball/jasspa-me-linux-2.x-yyyymmdd.gz > me
  chmod a+rx me
  

Assuming that the binary directory is already on the users path then the installation is complete.

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

NanoEmacs

Small foot print version of JASSPA MicroEmacs. Runs without macro files.

Installation

Known Issues

JASSPA MicroEmacs is not starting up in a X-Windows mode on Fedora 11/12 and possibly some other RedHat systems. On executing me then it silently fails to start. The reason for this is that the built-in default font cannot be resolved. In order to fix this then the following steps may be taken:

If you wish to re-build the binary with the default font then edit unixterm.c::2976 and change the default font string.
