HowTo: Install Xemacs

However, I would not install both Emacs and XEmacs at the same time. Nowadays, I highly recommend installing only one of them, with my preference given to XEmacs. Of course, only when there are no specialized Lisp packages that require Emacs.

Then my installation would be like below:

$ cd /cdrom/s10_software_companion/components/sparc/Packages
$ cat > /tmp/nointeraction
  mail=
  instance=unique
  partial=nocheck
  runlevel=nocheck
  idepend=nocheck
  rdepend=nocheck
  space=quit
  setuid=nocheck
  conflict=quit
  action=nocheck
  basedir=default

$ pkgadd -a /tmp/nointeraction -d . -n SFWbdb SFWgcc34l SFWxmacs

21872 blocks

Installation of <SFWbdb> was successful.

Installation of <SFWgcc34l> was successful.
[ Copyright and legal notices omitted for brevity. ]
264202 blocks

Installation of <SFWxmacs> was successful.

$ emacs () { /opt/sfw/bin/xemacs $* ; }

$ pkgadd -a /tmp/nointeraction -d . -n SFWddd SFWgbin SFWgdb
[ To complete installation of the other packages you require. ]

$ pkginfo SFWbdb SFWddd SFWgbin SFWgcc34l SFWgdb SFWxmacs
system      SFWbdb    berkeleyDB - Berkeley Database Library
system      SFWddd    ddd - GNU Data Display Debugger

system      SFWgcc34l gcc-3.4.2 - GNU Compiler Collection Runtime Libraries
system      SFWgdb    gdb - GNU source level debugger
system      SFWxmacs  XEmacs - text editor

HowTo: Install Xemacs

P.S. I include in the attachments my checklist I use for a Solaris 10 installation, adjusted to show only items particular to yours and not my entire decision tree. I added brief explanations for some of the items that might seem arbitrary otherwise.

Very similar decisions are made when installing any release of Linux, Solaris, MS Windows or yet another operating system - the details vary though.

http://docs.sun.com/ has all (too many) the details.
