Kai,
Thanks for the pointers, but I still couldn't get it to work.
I set EMACSDATA to the value of data-directory on machine Y (with
normal emacs installation) relative to machine X, and EMACSPATH
to point at the site-lisp dir relative to machine X.
Warning: arch-dependent data dir
(/usr/local/libexec/emacs/21.3/i686-pc-linux-gnu/) does not exist.
Warning: Lisp directory `/usr/local/share/emacs/21.3/site-lisp' does not exist.
Warning: Lisp directory `/usr/local/share/emacs/site-lisp' does not exist.
Warning: Lisp directory `/usr/local/share/emacs/21.3/leim' does not exist.
Warning: Lisp directory `/usr/local/share/emacs/21.3/lisp' does not exist.
Cannot open load file: term/x-win
I see this string _EMACS_INTERNAL in the emacs executable, but
don't see documentation for it. Could this be used somehow?
