* Yes, but I can't change it at the Makefile level. The paths to all the * directories are built at runtime by appending the directory name onto * JED_ROOT, which can be overridden at program launch time. That sounds totally broken! :< * So I either rut through the source for a program I don't understand, or * keep at least bin and lib in the same directory, and given all the *.sl * files that get generated, I certainly don't want to dump all those in * /usr/local/lib :-) Uuh. * 4) try to track down everyreference to the variable JED_ROOT gets * copied into, and modify each occurance depending on what * is being looked for. You mean set JED_ROOT=/usr/local during compile, right? You can do this by CONFIGURE_ENV and/or MAKE_ENV. Anyway, you already know bin and info can just be appended to JED_ROOT, so no source changes are necessary for those two. For lib and doc, I guess you need to change it to add a "/jed" at the end. If that's too hard, just put it in /usr/local/jed or .../lib/jed. It's not our intention to make your life too hard, I was just trying to find out how hard it is. ;) (For most ports, it's surprisingly easy...but not for this one I guess. :< ) Satoshi
