33 | There is a new pretest available in | |
34 | ||
35 | <ftp://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/emacs/pretest/emacs-$NEW.tar.gz> | |
36 | <ftp://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/emacs/pretest/leim-$NEW.tar.gz> | |
37 | ||
38 | Please report results from compiling and running the pretest to | |
39 | <emacs-pretest-bug@gnu.org>. Your feedback is necessary for us | |
40 | to know on which platforms the pretest has been tried. | |
2bfe1b7a | 41 | Please say whether you built with LEIM or not. |

43 | If you have the tars from the previous pretest, and you have the | |
44 | \`xdelta' utility, you can instead download the much smaller | |
45 | ||
46 | <ftp://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/emacs/pretest/emacs-$OLD-$NEW.xdelta> | |
47 | <ftp://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/emacs/pretest/leim-$OLD-$NEW.xdelta> | |
48 | ||
49 | You can use a command like | |
50 | ||
51 | $ xdelta patch XDELTA PREVIOUS-TAR CURRENT-TAR | |
52 | ||
53 | to generate the new tar from the old one, where XDELTA is the xdelta | |
54 | file you downloaded, PREVIOUS-TAR is the tar file from the previous | |
55 | pretest, and CURRENT-TAR is the name of the tar file you downloaded. | |
56 | ||
57 | Information about xdelta can be found on the GNU ftp site, in | |
58 | /non-gnu/xdelta.README. | |
