Tarball Installation (SFTP) ​

If you avoid package managers and like to manually install packages, a tar archive is available for sftp download and installation.

Download either:

1. a release tar.gz source archive from either: ​

ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/hyperbole/ or http://ftpmirror.gnu.org/hyperbole/, which will find the closest mirror of the GNU ftp site and show it to you.

2. the latest in-development pre-release tar.gz source archive: ​

https://elpa.gnu.org/devel/hyperbole.html.

Then decompress and unpack the archive to a directory of your choosing. Move into the hyperbole-<version>/ directory and execute the following Posix shell command:

make bin

to byte-compile the Hyperbole lisp files. Then add the following lines to your personal init file:

emacs-lisp
  (push "<hyperbole-version-directory-where-you-unpacked>"
        load-path)
