Other Emacs tips

POBox is a predictive text-input system, like Prime. However, it's very memory efficient. You can thus run it on low-memory or slow-processor devices. Also it can substitute, though not fully, Prime under cygwin, since Prime doesn't seem to run under cygwin.

To compile it and use it:

• Download pobox.tgz, originally found here.

  $ wget -c http://sumoudou.org/uni/pobox.tgz

• Untar it.

  $ tar xzvf pobox.tgz

• Install sary as per 相撲外：How to install Prime.
• Sary doesn't use Saryer anymore, but SarySearcher now, so edit POBox source to refer to SarySearcher.

  $ mv server/poboxlib.html server/poboxlib.html.bak $ sed 's/Saryer/SarySearcher/' < server/poboxlib.html.bak > server/poboxlib.html.1 $ sed 's/saryer_/sary_searcher_/' < server/poboxlib.html.1 > server/poboxlib.html

• Modify the configure script, so that it links agains glib-2.0.

  $ mv configure configure.bak $ sed 's/-lglib/-lglib-2.0/' < configure.bak > configure $ chmod 755 configure

• Configure POBox before building.

  $ cd OpenPOBox $ ./configue —enable-sary

• Build:

  $ make
