In windows, it is easiest to install EsN by using the EmacsPortable distribution. There are still a few optional Support Programs, you may wish to install.
Support programs
To use all the capabilities of Emacs, it is useful to install a few support programs. Ghostscript and GSView are useful helpers for printing, Imagemagick allows thumbnail viewing of images within a directory from within emacs, Cygwin/MSYS allows unix-type shells, and Tortoise Hg provides a directory-based version control that integrates into windows explorer.
Installing Emacs Speaks NONMEM without EmacsPortable
Emacs Speaks NONMEM is availble as a
zip file, a Gziped tarball file, or a Bziped tarbal file. After extracting the
contents, open the install.el
in emacs and use the following menu:
- Emacs-Lisp
- Evaluate Buffer
After, restart Emacs Speaks NONMEM. This should install Emacs Speaks NONMEM for
the individual who ran the script. If you would like to install Emacs Speaks
NONMEM globally, open ~/.emacs
and copy the code between the ;Begin ESN
and ;End
ESN
into a global start file (usually creating a new .el
file in the site-lisp
directory (wherever that is located).
