Where are >they supposed to end up ? I like to keep multifile add-on packages like semantic, speedbar, the JDE, itself, plus any lisp files downloaded separately from the core Emacs distribution in separate directories. Here is my Emacs directory structure: home emacs site-lisp <-- Add-ons for both Emacs and XEmacs jde-2.1.6 semantic-1.1 speedbar-0.11 site-lisp-emacs <-- Emacs-only add-ons site-lisp-xemacs <-- XEmacs-only add-ons emacs <-- Latest version of GNU Emacs XEmacs <-- Latest version of XEmacs The advantage of doing this is that I can update any of these directories independently. > >The only other problem I had was with the source file jde-bug.el. >XEmacs was having a problem reading using the return value of the >system-name function.
