Installation Procedure

1. Execute the test script as described on the previous page.

2. Add psgmlx to Emacs Startup

   Put the following lines in your .emacs file:

   (setq psgmlxpath "path-to-psgmlx-directory")
   (load (concat psgmlxpath "/init"))	
    	

   In the first statement, enter the correct path to the psgmlx directory for your setup. The path must NOT have a trailing slash. The dot-emacs.el file has an example.

   For example, if you untar it in your home directory and don't change its name, you'd have

   (setq psgmlxpath "~/psgmlx-0.3")
   (load (concat psgmlxpath "/init"))	  
   	  

3. X Resources

   If you want Emacs to have a spiffy menubar and menus, put the contents of the dot-Xresources file into your .Xresources file. Then update the X resource database by issuing the command: xrdb ~/.Xresources

4. Miscellaneous Settings

   The stuff in "misc-settings.el" is loaded in the demo, but not by default. To always load this file at start-up, put the following in your .emacs, BEFORE you load psgmlx-init:

                                                 
   (setq misc-settings t)
   	  

5. Windows Users

   If you want windows-style CUT, COPY, PASTE, and UNDO keyboard commands, put the following in your .emacs BEFORE you load psgmlx-init:

                                                 
   (setq winkeys t)
   	  

6. Changing the Default Color Theme

   Edit default-color-theme.el to select what you wamt, or put it's content in your .emacs. This stuff must go AFTER you load psgmlx-init, when emacs will know where to find things.

7. SGML Catalog Configuration

   If you're using a central system catalog, you'll need to tell psgml where it's located. To do so, put a line like this in your .emacs:

   (setq sgml-catalog-files "path-to-system-catalog")
