Installing PSGML
****************

   To install PSGML you first need to uncompress and unpack the source
archive.  This is done with the `gunzip' and `tar' commands.

     gunzip psgml-1.2.0.tar.gz; tar xf psgml-1.2.0.tar

   This should create a subdirectory to the current directory with the
source code. This directory contains a `configure' command (see the
file INSTALL for more information about configure).  You can use the
`configure' command to configure the package or you can load the file
`psgml-maint' and execute the `psgml-compile-files' command.

   Place the `*.el' and the `*.elc' files in a directory where Emacs
can find it (i.e. one of the directories in the `load-path' variable,
you can add a directory to this variable in your `.emacs'.)

   If you use the `configure' approach, compile psgml with `make' and
the you can run `make install' to install it in the system library
`site-lisp'.  The location of `site-lisp' is figured out by
`configure', but you can change it in the `Makefile'.

   Put the following line in your .emacs:

     (autoload 'sgml-mode "psgml" "Major mode to edit SGML files." t)
     (autoload 'xml-mode "psgml" "Major mode to edit XML files." t)

   You may also want to set up search paths for external entities,
Note: Entity manager.

   The `psgml.info' is the documentation for PSGML in the info format.
You can read this with the Emacs command `C-u C-h i'.  You can also
install the file in your systems info directory and edit the `dir' file
to include `psgml.info' in the menu.

   The info file `psgml.info' is created from the texinfo file
`psgml.texi'.  The texinfo file can also be used to create a hard copy
of the documentation.  To do this you need the TeX program and a copy
of `texinfo.tex'.
