[h-e-w] Re: Latest stable release of Emacs for Windows?

[Raymond Zeitler]

I'm using GNU Emacs 22.0.50.1 (i386-mingw-nt5.0.2195) of 2006-03-21 on
YAMALOK, which I obtained as a binary.  It's not yet released, though,
but it works fine, except for GNUServ.  Prior to upgrading, I was using
version 21.3.50.

The binaries I use do not come with an installer.  I simply copy files
from the archive file onto my hard drive (or CD).

Please see ...

and ...

http://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/emacs/windows/

You might see references to version 21.4.  AFAIK, this update contains
nothing helpful for Windows users.  So the version 21.3 BIN files at the
FTP site are as up-to-date as you need.

What is the latest stable release of Emacs for Windows?  Is it already
packaged using Windows Installer, does it use a non-standard installer
like Inno Setup or InstallShield, or is it just an unpackaged binary
release?  I'm still using Emacs 21.2, but I'd like to upgrade.

Best wishes,
Matthew
