This is my first time using Ubuntu and I dont know how I should install a program on it. I tried using cd the directory where it is and then ./configure it but it is not working!
I am trying to compile emacs
on Ubuntu 12.04. This is because I want to use Emacs 24.2.
However, I am getting the following error. How can I fix it?
checking for long file names... yes
checking for X... no
checking for X... true
configure: error: You seem to be running X, but no X development libraries
were found. You should install the relevant development files for X
and for the toolkit you want, such as Gtk+, Lesstif or Motif. Also make
sure you have development files for image handling, i.e.
tiff, gif, jpeg, png and xpm.
If you are sure you want Emacs compiled without X window support, pass
--without-x
to configure.
Emacs 24.1 was released recently, and I'm wondering what the recommended way of upgrading Precise's Emacs to it is. I know of the snapshot PPA, but I'd like the final, stable version. I've found a suggestion to install it manually, but I'd like to use apt if at all possible.
There seem to be the following versions: emacs23, emacs23-nox, e3, emacs23-lucid, and jove, as choices to download. Where can I find out what the differences are?
Can anyone tell me how to enable Emacs
keybind on Chrome
?
I found some links but they are either not clearly mentioning how to do so or not what I want (I don't want external tools to be run for this purpose).
