* INTRODUCTION

This is the documentation for MH-E, a GNU Emacs interface to the MH
mail system.

Emacs comes prepackaged with MH-E; the files in this package may be
more recent however. To ascertain the version of MH-E in your version
of Emacs and to determine whether it is necessary to install these
files, run the command "C-h i d m mh-e RET" within Emacs. This should
bring you to the top of the MH-E documentation which shows the version
of the documentation, as well as the version of the software for which
it was written. Use the command "M-x mh-version" within Emacs to see
which version of the software you are running. If this package
contains a more recent version of the MH-E documentation which is
compatible with the version of the software that you're running, read
on.

This version of the MH-E documentation will appear in GNU Emacs 21.2.


* INSTALL

** Extract the tarball.

If you don't have GNU tar, use gzip to uncompress the tarball and drop
the `z' option.

	tar xzf mh-e-doc-2.0.tgz

** Build the desired documentation.

The Texinfo source can produce documentation in Emacs' info format,
HTML format for viewing via a browser, and DVI and PostScript formats
for printing. 

First, go into the mh-e-doc-2.0 directory and then follow the
appropriate directions below.

*** info

Run `make mh-e.info'. This creates a sub-directory called `info',
builds the info version of the documentation, and deposits it in that
directory. You need the program `makeinfo' to do this.

Go into Emacs and run "C-u C-h i /path/to/mh-e-doc-2.0/info/mh-e RET"
to view the documentation.

*** HTML

Run `make mh-e.html'. This creates a sub-directory called `html',
builds the HTML version of the documentation, and deposits it in that
directory. You need the programs `texi2html' and `perl' to do this.

Use a browser and point it at "/path/to/mh-e-doc-2.0/html/index.html"
to view the documentation.

*** DVI

Run `make mh-e.dvi'. This creates a sub-directory called `dvi', builds
the DVI version of the documentation, and deposits it in that
directory. You need the program `texi2dvi' to do this.

You can then either view the documentation with a tool such as `xdvi'
or print it. The file is "/path/to/mh-e-doc-2.0/dvi/mh-e.dvi".

*** PostScript

Run `make mh-e.dvi'. This creates a sub-directory called `dvi', builds
the DVI version of the documentation, and deposits it in that
directory. You need the programs `texi2dvi' and `dvips' to do this.

You can then either view the documentation with a tool such as `gv'
or print it. The file is "/path/to/mh-e-doc-2.0/dvi/mh-e.ps".

*** Everything

Run `make', without any arguments.
