Good instructions! Basically the same instructions also work for XP and Vista. Except on 32-bit systems you don't need the ' (x86)' after Program Files. (I used to use 32-bit XP and Vista and am now on 64-bit 7 myself.)
The only thing I do differently is that I prefer the standard emacs: http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/emacs/windows/. Also FAQ<http://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/windows/> . It would be nice to have a script that set up the environment variable for you. Maybe I'll do that sometime. - Lyle On Thu, Oct 7, 2010 at 12:38 AM, Gustavo Gutierrez < gutierrez.gust...@uclouvain.be> wrote: > Dear all, > > This message contains the steps I followed to run mozart (1.4.0) on windows > 7.
