-This directory tree holds version 21.0.96 of GNU Emacs, the extensible,
-customizable, self-documenting real-time display editor.
-
-You may encounter bugs in this release. If you do, please report
-them; your bug reports are valuable contributions to the FSF, since
-they allow us to notice and fix problems on machines we don't have, or
-in code we don't use often. See the file BUGS for more information on
-how to report bugs.
-
-See the files `etc/NEWS' and `etc/news.texi' for information on new
-features and other user-visible changes since the last version of
-Emacs.
-
-The file INSTALL in this directory says how to bring up GNU Emacs on
-Unix, once you have loaded the entire subtree of this directory.
-
-The file etc/PROBLEMS contains information on many common problems that
-occur in building, installing and running Emacs.
-
-Reports of bugs in Emacs should be sent to the mailing list
-bug-gnu-emacs@gnu.org. See the "Bugs" section of the Emacs
-manual for more information on how to report bugs. (The file `BUGS'
-in this directory explains how you can find and read that section
-using the Info files that come with Emacs.) See `etc/MAILINGLISTS'
-for more information on mailing lists relating to GNU packages.
-
-The `etc' subdirectory contains several other files, named in
-capital letters, which you should look at when installing GNU Emacs.
-
-The file `configure' is a shell script to acclimate Emacs to the
-oddities of your processor and operating system. It creates the file
-`Makefile' (a script for the `make' program), which automates the
-process of building and installing Emacs. See INSTALL for more
-detailed information.
-
-The file `configure.in' is the input used by the autoconf program to
-construct the `configure' script. Since Emacs has configuration
-requirements that autoconf can't meet, `configure.in' uses an unholy
-marriage of custom-baked configuration code and autoconf macros; it
-may be wise to avoid rebuilding `configure' from `configure.in' when
-possible.
-
-The file `Makefile.in' is a template used by `configure' to create
-`Makefile'.
-
-The file `make-dist' is a shell script to build a distribution tar
-file from the current Emacs tree, containing only those files
-appropriate for distribution. If you make extensive changes to Emacs,
-this script will help you distribute your version to others.
-
-There are several subdirectories:
-
-`src' holds the C code for Emacs (the Emacs Lisp interpreter and its
- primitives, the redisplay code, and some basic editing functions).
-`lisp' holds the Emacs Lisp code for Emacs (most everything else).
-`lib-src' holds the source code for some utility programs for use by
- or with Emacs, like movemail and etags.
-`etc' holds miscellaneous architecture-independent data files
- Emacs uses, like the tutorial text and the Zippy the Pinhead quote
- database. The contents of the `lisp', `info' and `man'
- subdirectories are architecture-independent too.
-
-`info' holds the Info documentation tree for Emacs.
-`man' holds the source code for the Emacs manual.
-
- Note that the Emacs Lisp manual sources are distributed separately.
-(They are twice as large as the Emacs manual in the man subdirectory.)
-
-`msdos' holds configuration files for compiling Emacs under MSDOG.
-`vms' holds instructions and useful files for running Emacs under VMS.
-`nt' holds various command files and documentation files that pertain
- to running Emacs on Windows NT.
-`mac' holds instructions, sources, and other useful files for building
- and running Emacs on the Mac.

+The `etc' subdirectory contains several other files, named in capital

+
+The file `configure' is a shell script to acclimate Emacs to the

+`Makefile' (a script for the `make' program), which automates the
+process of building and installing Emacs. See INSTALL for more
+detailed information.
+
+The file `configure.in' is the input used by the autoconf program to
+construct the `configure' script. Since Emacs has some configuration
+requirements that autoconf can't meet directly, and for historical
+reasons, `configure.in' uses an unholy marriage of custom-baked
+configuration code and autoconf macros. If you want to rebuild
+`configure' from `configure.in', you will need to install a recent
+version of autoconf and GNU m4.
+
+The file `Makefile.in' is a template used by `configure' to create
+`Makefile'.
+
+The file `make-dist' is a shell script to build a distribution tar
+file from the current Emacs tree, containing only those files
+appropriate for distribution. If you make extensive changes to Emacs,

+
+There are several subdirectories:
+
+`src' holds the C code for Emacs (the Emacs Lisp interpreter and
+ its primitives, the redisplay code, and some basic editing
+ functions).
+`lisp' holds the Emacs Lisp code for Emacs (most everything else).
+`leim' holds the library of Emacs input methods, Lisp code and
+ auxiliary data files required to type international characters
+ which can't be directly produced by your keyboard.
+`lib-src' holds the source code for some utility programs for use by or
+ with Emacs, like movemail and etags.
+`etc' holds miscellaneous architecture-independent data files
+ Emacs uses, like the tutorial text and the Zippy the Pinhead
+ quote database. The contents of the `lisp', `leim', `info',
+ `man', `lispref', and `lispintro' subdirectories are
+ architecture-independent too.
+`info' holds the Info documentation tree for Emacs.
+`man' holds the source code for the Emacs Manual. If you modify the
+ manual sources, you will need the `makeinfo' program to produce
+ an updated manual. `makeinfo' is part of the GNU Texinfo
+ package; you need version 4.2 or later of Texinfo.
+`lispref' holds the source code for the Emacs Lisp reference manual.
+`lispintro' holds the source code for the Introduction to Programming
+ in Emacs Lisp manual.
+
+`msdos' holds configuration files for compiling Emacs under MSDOG.
+`vms' holds instructions and useful files for running Emacs under VMS.
+`nt' holds various command files and documentation files that pertain
+ to building and running Emacs on Windows 9X/ME/NT/2000/XP.
+`mac' holds instructions, sources, and other useful files for building
+ and running Emacs on the Mac.
+
+ Building Emacs on non-Posix platforms requires to install tools
+that aren't part of the standard distribution of the OS. The
+platform-specific README files and installation instructions should
+list the required tools.
