After manually building BBDB many times it was time to try to write a
make.bat for those who like me are in the make-less world. Cygwin is
unfortunately not an option yet.
The problem is that I really don't know much about bat files or how BBDB
is being built in recent versions, so the outcome is very crude. It was
also only tested in my configuration (emacs 20.6 + gnus). Improvements,
comments etc. are welcome.
I don't know if the lisp warning should be there or what to do with the
lisp errors. BBDB is working but I only use a limited functionality.
The info build problem also occurs when trying to build on line. I
don't know how to proceed with this.

d:\Yair\emacs\bbdb>make.bat d:\emacs-20.6
make.bat d:\emacs-20.6
d:\Yair\emacs\bbdb>rem Written by Yair Friedman ([EMAIL PROTECTED])
d:\Yair\emacs\bbdb>rem Based upon the gnus make.bat by David Charlap
([EMAIL PROTECTED])
d:\Yair\emacs\bbdb>rem
d:\Yair\emacs\bbdb>rem There are two possible problems with this batch file. The
emacs.bat batch
d:\Yair\emacs\bbdb>rem file may not exist in all distributions. It is part of the GNU
build of
d:\Yair\emacs\bbdb>rem Emacs 20.4
(http://www.gnu.org/softare/emacs/windows.ntemacs.html) If you
d:\Yair\emacs\bbdb>rem install BBDB with some other build, you may have to replace
calls to
d:\Yair\emacs\bbdb>rem d:\emacs-20.6\emacs.bat with something else.
d:\Yair\emacs\bbdb>rem
d:\Yair\emacs\bbdb>rem Also, the emacs.bat file that comes with Emacs does not accept
more than 9
d:\Yair\emacs\bbdb>rem parameters, so the attempts to compile the .texi files will
fail. To
d:\Yair\emacs\bbdb>rem fix that (at least on NT. I don't know about Win95), the
following
d:\Yair\emacs\bbdb>rem change should be made to emacs.bat:
d:\Yair\emacs\bbdb>rem
d:\Yair\emacs\bbdb>rem D:/emacs-20.6\bin\emacs.exe d:\emacs-20.6
d:\Yair\emacs\bbdb>rem
d:\Yair\emacs\bbdb>rem should become
d:\Yair\emacs\bbdb>rem
d:\Yair\emacs\bbdb>rem D:/emacs-20.6\bin\emacs.exe d:\emacs-20.6
d:\Yair\emacs\bbdb>rem
d:\Yair\emacs\bbdb>rem which will allow the batch file to accept an unlimited number
of
d:\Yair\emacs\bbdb>rem parameters.
d:\Yair\emacs\bbdb>rem For the meaning of these look at the Makefile.
d:\Yair\emacs\bbdb>rem Notice that you have to double any backslashes in the path.

d:\Yair\emacs\bbdb>rem Emacs 20.7 no longer includes emacs.bat. Use emacs.exe if the

parameters on Win9x.
