Emacs refers to as it runs; it defaults to `/usr/local/libexec'.
We create the following subdirectories under `libexecdir':

file contains an appropriate menu entry for the Emacs info.

+3) Copy `./src/emacs' to `/usr/local/bin', or to some other directory
in users' search paths. `./src/emacs' has an alternate name
`./src/emacs-EMACSVERSION'; you may wish to make a symbolic link named
`/usr/local/bin/emacs' pointing to that alternate name, as an easy way
You can delete `./src/temacs'.

used by Emacs once it is built. However, it is very desirable to keep
the source on line for debugging.
