Using Epigram

_Remember it's a wiki, please add anything special that you had to do to make it work_

The Epigram files from [[http://www.e-pig.org/]] work fine on my system (OS X), although I had to install xemacs recompile the binary and adapt the startup script.

Install XEmacs.  (I used Fink for that, so 'apt-get install xemacs' did the trick.)

To recompile the binary:
   * Go into the src/ directory
   * Edit the Makefile, remove '-package lang' from FIXED_FLAGS (for GHC > 6.4)
   * make

To adapt the startup script
   * Remove the cygwin stuff, since it uses cut with options not in the BSD version of cut.

To start Epigram, start X11 first and then run ./epigram from an X11 terminal.  Note that it won't work from a OS X terminal (you'll get the message "XEmacs: standard input is not a tty").
