Hi,

I install Emacs to C:\Program Files\emacs-VERSION.

That I do. I have 21.4, 22.3, 23.2/23.3 versions to debug my '.emacs' portability.

Here are the steps that I performed in upgrading from 23.2 to 23.3:

* Change the Emacs version number in the ALTERNATE_EDITOR system
environment variable.

Why this need?

* Change the Emacs version number in the PATH user environment variable.

That only things I do.

* Run C:\Program Files\emacs-VERSION\bin\addpm.exe.

Current 'info emacs' state that newer version of Emacs no longer need run 'addpm.exe'.

* Change the "Start in" directory my My Documents folder.

How this effect for Emacs?

* Use regedit to delete "My
Computer\HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Applications\emacsclientw.exe".

Why this need?
