Are your submodules up to date? Try:

$ /home/mike/.e-max/scripts/update.sh

Then start emacs again. Does it work now?

[gaffo]

This was on a first time ever checkout of e-max clean. I would hope the submodules were up to date with the installer script or this is a bug in the installer script

[senny]

@gaffo is it working after you ran update.sh? If so, do you still have the console output when installing e-max. It should indeed initialized the submodules when you run the install.sh probably something failed on your side.

What operation system are you using?

You need to supply more information otherwise we can't locate the problem since the installer works just fine in our environment.

[gaffo]

I can try it again later. Ubuntu 11.10. Emacs 24 snapshot. Do I need to run update after I run the install script?

[senny]

@gaffo no you should not need to run the update-script after the install. The install script should setup everything as needed. We had some feedback tough that the install.sh is not working properly on ubuntu: 3e075951d642ed419c17104f2ce58c2bc029686a

I'll merge that patch in and then you should give it another try.

[gaffo]

Okay, let me know here when you've done so and I'll try it. I've got the laptop handy.

I merged in the fix. After you run the installation script you should see an output similar to this one:

that seemed to have worked. now I just gotta figure out what you changed all of the shortcuts to (open file, copy, paste, etc).

:)

[senny]

@gaffo we know that currently e-max does lack a huge deal of documentation. Also the binding setup that @jones and our team uses is quite different from the Emacs defaults and probably should not be activated directly. We are thinking about a color-theme like system for bindings so that you could easily change the way the keys are bound (#47).

If you don't want to use our binding policy just deactivate the ergonomic bundle in your ~/.emacs.d/init.el

[jone]

@gaffo check out the binding definitions in the ergonomic bundle -> https://github.com/senny/e-max/blob/master/bundles/ergonomic/bundle.el or run M-a describe-bindings RET
