Attention Emacs Builders -- This version of GNU Emacs has been endowed with a
carefully crafted Makefile that will create a Jasperized environment for Emacs
in which to build and install the various parts in their preferred locations
on a NeXT system.  It will even make sure that config.h and paths.h are set up
to build a NeXT version of Emacs and synchronize version.el with the current
SGS version of the Emacs source.  All this with absolutely no change to the
GNU distribution at all.  (Not unless it itself changes in some drastic way,
of course.)

All you need to do to incorporate a new version of Emacs from FSF are the
following easy 6 steps:

1. Unpack the compressed tar file.
	% tar xvfp emacs-42.13.tar.Z

2. cd to the top level directory.
	% cd emacs-42.13

3. Rename Makefile to be Makefile.orig.
	% mv Makefile Makefile.orig

4. Copy Makefile.NeXT, README.NeXT, and SGS_ENV from the old version of emacs.
	% cp -p <olddir>/*.NeXT SGS_ENV .

5. Link Makefile.NeXT to Makefile
	% ln Makefile.NeXT Makefile

6. You're done; do "make" to try it out!
