HyperActiveFTP Installation Menu <(Return to HyperActiveFTP dired)> -------------------------------- NOTE: Those who have had previous versions of HyperActiveFTP just do steps 0, 1 and 2 to update their system. -*- 0 Everyone must <(Load in the Installation Code:5)>. Even if you have this file locally, click this button as I update the Installation Code off and on. -*- 1 1.1 HyperActiveFTP should be installed in its own directory. If you want to use the default installation directory, proceed to 1.4. If you want to change the default directory, follow the directions in 1.2-1.4 carefully. 1.2 It should not be installed in or below the Hyperbole directory because it will be tedious for you to separate the HyperActiveFTP files from the Hyperbole files when a new distribution of Hyperbole comes out. 1.3 It is suggested that you place the directory for HyperActiveFTP just below the directory where you keep all of your emacs lisp code. For example, if all of your emacs lisp code is in ~/gnu, then when prompted for the HyperActive directory name, enter ~/gnu/HyperActive/. DO NOT FORGET THE SLASH. 1.4 The default installation directory is ~/emacs/active-hyper/ Click here if you want to <(Change Default Installation Directory)> or click here to <(Make Hyper-Installation Directory)> -*- 2 If you already have a previous version of HyperActiveFTP then click here and I will just install <(updated files)> Else We will copy all the files from the home site at archive.cis.ohio-state.edu into the Hyper-Installation Directory. To overwrite old files in the Hyper-Installation Directory or to get your very first distribution of HyperActiveFTP, click here and I will <(Install the Latest Version of HyperActiveFTP)> Note: In neither case do I give you a copy of the file "active-hyper.list.frq.otl" this file is a list of frequently accessed sites. Each user will have his own preferred frequently-accessed sites. -*- 3 Assuming you have these two commands in your .emacs file: (require 'ange-ftp) (load "hsite") Click here to <(find-file ~/.emacs)> and then add the following line anywhere in the file: (load-file "~//active-hyper.requirements.el") where is the directory you elected to install HyperActiveFTP in. In the default case, this line would be: (load-file "~/emacs/active-hyper/active-hyper.requirements.el") -*- 4 Now re-evaluate the .emacs file. Save it. Type M-x active-hyper:get-hyper to bring up the main menu. -*- 5 Problems, questions, suggestions to tbrannon@lion.eecs.lehigh.edu
