Installation

Pacmacs available on MELPA. Add the following to your emacs config file somewhere (.emacs, init.el, whatever):

             '("melpa" . "https://melpa.org/packages/") t)

Then use M-x package-install RET pacmacs RET to install the game.

Development

Before developing the game please remove it from Emacs if it was installed before. You'll need Cask to install the dependencies.

I usually use the following workflow when I develop this game:

1. $ git clone git://github.com/codingteam/pacmacs.el.git && cd pacmacs.el;
2. $ cask install;
3. $ cask exec emacs;
4. M-x find-file RET /path/to/pacmacs.el/pacmacs.el RET;
5. M-x eval-expression RET (add-to-list 'load-path default-directory) RET;
6. M-x eval-buffer RET;
7. M-x pacmacs-start RET;
8. M-x pacmacs-quit RET;
9. Change something in the source code;
10. Go to the step 6.

Unit Tests

For Unit Tests you need to install Cask first. To run unit tests:

$ cask # only once to download development dependencies
$ cask exec ert-runner
