In preparation for Hyperbole version 8, we have produced a test release with the bulk of all the major changes. It is not hard to test out but it is not automated as a package install as version 8 will be. We'll allow for about two weeks of feedback and then make the regular wide-scale release.
Here is what is new:
Here are instructions for installation:
If you want to compile Hyperbole yourself you can do it like this:Move to some path in the filesystem where you want to keep Hyperboleand clone the git repository: git clone https://git.savannah.gnu.org/git/hyperbole.gitcd to the hyperbole folder that was just created. (This is thePATH-TO-HYPERBOLE-FOLDER that is mentioned below.) cd hyperboleByte compile the files: make binIf you prefer to work from the source without byte compiling you caninstead do: make srcNow Hyperbole is prepared on your system but you need to load it toyour emacs. Edit your "~/.emacs" file and insert the lines: (add-to-list 'load-path "PATH-TO-HYPERBOLE-FOLDER")) (load "hyperbole-autoloads") (load "hyperbole")Restart your emacs or evaluate the lines above in your running emacsand you are done.
Enjoy,
Bob and Mats
