This is installation.info, produced by makeinfo version 5.2 from
|
||
installation.texi.
|
||
|
||
1. Download the latest zip or tgz archive from ESS downloads area
|
||
(http://ess.r-project.org/index.php?Section=download) and unpack it
|
||
into a directory where you would like ESS to reside. We will
|
||
denote this directory as '/path/to/ESS/' hereafter.
|
||
|
||
Alternatively you can use 'git' to fetch the most recent
|
||
development version to your local machine with:
|
||
|
||
git clone https://github.com/emacs-ess/ESS.git /path/to/ESS
|
||
|
||
2. Optionally, compile elisp files and build the documentation with:
|
||
cd /path/to/ESS/
|
||
make
|
||
Without this step, info, pdf and html documentation and reference
|
||
card will not be available.
|
||
|
||
3. Optionally, install into your local machine with 'make install'.
|
||
You might need administrative privileges:
|
||
|
||
make install
|
||
|
||
The files are installed into '/usr/share/emacs' directory. For
|
||
this step to run correctly on Mac OS X, you will need to adjust the
|
||
'PREFIX' path in 'Makeconf'. The necessary code and instructions
|
||
are commented in that file.
|
||
|
||
4. If you have performed the 'make install' step from above, just add
|
||
|
||
(require 'ess-site)
|
||
|
||
to your '~/.emacs' file. Otherwise, you should add
|
||
'/path/to/ESS/lisp/' to your emacs load path and then load ESS with
|
||
the following lines in your '~/.emacs':
|
||
|
||
(add-to-list 'load-path "/path/to/ESS/lisp/")
|
||
(load "ess-site")
|
||
|
||
5. Restart your Emacs and check that ESS was loaded from a correct
|
||
location with 'M-x ess-version'.
|
||
|
||
_Note for Windows and Mac OS X users:_ The most straightforward way
|
||
to install Emacs on your machine is by downloading all-in-one
|
||
(http://vgoulet.act.ulaval.ca/en/emacs/) Emacs binary by Vincent Goulet.
|
||
|
||
_Note for XEmacs users:_ Due to XEmacs lacking some features that ESS
|
||
requires, ESS support of XEmacs ends with ESS 12.04-4. This decision
|
||
will be re-visited in the future as XEmacs continues to sync with GNU
|
||
Emacs.
