+# Builds Emacs from source using the variables below.
+
+# - creates the directory if needed
+# - uninstalls emacs if it exists
+# - pulls latest source from repo below
+#   unless "latest" is passed as parameter
+# - checks out the tag below
+# - uses all available processors when compiling
+
+# NOTES:
+# building xwidgets is broken on Linux in 29/30 tags
+# ./configure --with-xwidgets \
+
+# ...and I'm avoiding native compilation at the moment
+#./configure --with-native-compilation \
