Re: [barrysemacs] MAC OS X Leopard Install

Thanks for the beta kit.  I understand that bemacs is a volunteer effort so do take your time on this one.

I did try V7.3-171.  I copied the tar file to my home directory and used the command
  1. Start a Terminal session
  2. cd ~/
  3. tar xzf bemacs-mac-os-x-intel-V7.3-171.
and used the command ~/bemacs-kit/be   No luck. Here is the message:

gim-homs-macbook:~ gimhom$ cd ~/bemacs-kit/be
-bash: cd: /Users/gimhom/bemacs-kit/be: No such file or directory
gim-homs-macbook:~ gimhom$

The folder be is missing in /emacs-kit.  

Do take your time on this one. My workaround is to create a virtual XP system with VMware Fusion and using the XP version.

Thanks very much for your effort on this.

Regards,

Gim

(I don't have a Intel Mac yet, only powerpc so I have to find time to use the work mac
which is why it took a while to get a new kit together.)

It's the Motif library.

Do you have an Intel or PPC Mac?
I may need to build the kit again and use static linking of Motif.
