13.1 Emacs on Windows

If you obtain a full version of emacs for Windows then things will run as described in section 13 and you need read no further, except to note that if you have a two-button mouse, pressing both buttons emulates the middle mouse button normal with Unix and Linux.

There is a cut down version of emacs, version 19.34, supplied with rsltc for Windows. This lacks the ability to run a sub-process, and so two features of the use with emacs described in section 13 are a little different:

• To run VCG, first use the menu item "Draw module dependency graph" from X.rsl. This will generate X.vcg but will not display it. Start a DOS shell, move to the directory where X.rsl is located, and use the following command to start VCG:

  <dir>/vcg X.vcg
  

  where vcg.exe is stored in <dir>.

• To run SML, first use the menu item "Translate to SML" from X.rsl. This will generate X.sml and X_.sml, where the latter is loaded by the former. Start a DOS shell, move to the directory where X.rsl is located, and use the following command to start SML:

  <dir>/sml
  

  where sml.exe is stored in <dir>. This starts the SML run-time system in its own window. In that window, after the prompt -, give the command

  use "X.sml";
  

  Note the semicolon ";" at the end of this command. If you forget it you will get a prompt = on the next line, and you can type it there.
