I am beginner using Emacs 23.4, and I wanted to try a web browser package. From Emacs wiki, I found eww. But when Emacs starts I get from *Warnings*:
File error: Cannot open load file, shr
I get the same thing when I do M-x load-library RET shr
.
What I did for installing eww was saving the eww.el
file in my ~/.emacs.d/
directory and added this:
(add-to-list 'load-path "~/.emacs.d/")
(require 'eww)
to my ~/.emacs
file as well.
I didn't find the shr
package to download on internet, and that is why I am lost. Thanks in advance.
eww
is built into Emacs 24.4, so you didn't need to download it, unless you have an older Emacs.shr.el
is part of Emacs (again, I believe since very recently - at least I'm sure it relies on libxml, which was added not so long ago). You'll also want to read this emacswiki.org/InstallingPackages to figure out how to get Emacs packages with less version conflicts and update mechanism. – wvxvw Dec 14 '14 at 20:25
