82HOW TO COMPILE AND TEST 82HOW TO COMPILE
83----------------------- 83--------------
84 84
85To try out the multi-tty branch, compile and run the multi-tty branch 85The multi-tty branch is compiled the same way as Emacs itself:
86with the following commands:
87 86
88 find -name "*.elc" | xargs rm # Delete leftover stuff 87 ./configure <your favourite options>
89 mkdir +build
90 cd +build
91 ../configure <your favourite options>
92 make bootstrap 88 make bootstrap
93 src/emacs -nw # You can also try without -nw 89 make install

94To try out the multi-tty branch start up the Emacs server with the
95following commands:
96
97 emacs
94 M-x server-start 98 M-x server-start
95 99
96and then (from a shell prompt on another terminal) start emacsclient 100and then (from a shell prompt on another terminal) start emacsclient
