System Wide Component Installation

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

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

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

Unpack the binary into the new directory.

  cd /opt/jasspa
  mkdir bin
  gunzip -c /path-to-tarball/jasspa-me-sgi-irix-x-yyyymmdd.gz > me
  chmod a+rx me

Change your path to include the executable (ideally edit /etc/profile for system wide change) or locally by editing the .profile or .cshrc files i.e.

  #
  # Set up JASSPA Microemacs
  #
  if [ -d /opt/jasspa/bin ] ; then
      PATH=$PATH:/opt/jasspa/bin
  fi
  export PATH

Logout and back in, 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-sgi-irix-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.
