+ + emacs-22.1-bin-i386.zip
+ Windows binaries of Emacs-22.1, with all lisp code and documentation
+ included.
+
+ Download this file if you want a single installation package, and
+ are not interested in the C source code for Emacs. After
+ unpacking, you can optionally run the file bin/addpm.exe to have
+ Emacs add icons to the Start Menu.
+
+ If you need the C source code at a later date, it will be safe to
+ unpack the source distribution on top of this installation.
+
+ + emacs-22.1-barebin-i386.zip
+ Windows binaries of Emacs-22.1, without lisp code or documentation.
+
+ Download this file if you already have the source distribution, or
+ if you need to redump the emacs.exe executable.
+
+ Unpack this over the top of either the source distribution or the
+ bin distribution above. It contains the bin subdirectory and etc/DOC
+ file, plus temacs.exe and dump.bat, which are required if you want to
+ redump emacs without recompiling it.
+
+ + emacs-21.3-bin-i386.tar.gz
+ Windows binaries of Emacs 21.3, with compiled lisp code and some
+ documentation included.
+
+ This is provided for users who require the older version.
+
+ + emacs-21.3-leim.tar.gz
+ Compiled lisp input methods. This optional addition to Emacs-21.3
+ is required if you want to enter languages that are not directly
+ supported by your keyboard.
+
+* Image support
+
+ Emacs 22.1 contains support for images, however for most image formats
+ supporting libraries are required. This distribution has been tested
+ with the libraries that are distributed with GTK for Windows, and the
+ libraries found at http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/. The following image
+ formats are supported:
+
+ PBM/PGM/PPM: Supported natively by Emacs. This format is used for
+ the black and white versions of the toolbar icons.
+
+ XPM: requires a Windows port of the XPM library 3.4 or later,
+ which will be named xpm4.dll, libxpm-nox4.dll or
+ libxpm.dll. This format is used for the color versions of the
+ toolbar icons, and other images in Emacs.
+
+ PNG: requires the PNG reference library 1.2 or later, which will
+ be named libpng13d.dll, libpng13.dll, libpng12d.dll, libpng12.dll
+ or libpng.dll. LibPNG requires zlib, which should come from the same
+ source as you got libpng.
+
+ JPEG: requires the Independant JPEG Group's libjpeg 6b or later,
+ which will be called jpeg62.dll, libjpeg.dll, jpeg-62.dll or jpeg.dll.
+
+ TIFF: requires libTIFF 3.0 or later, which will be called libtiff3.dll
+ or libtiff.dll.
+
+ GIF: requires libungif or giflib 4.1 or later, which will be
+ called giflib4.dll, libungif4.dll or libungif.dll.
