- In XEmacs Beta Release 21.2-bXX:
  Menus have been re-arranged in XEmacs 21.2.
  
  Select a download site under

```
  and after listing available packages with
```
Tools->Packages->List and Install
```
  install build with
```
Packages->Toggle install `build'

Run XEmacs command

M-x package-admin-add-binary-package RET build-package-tarball-path RET

after tarball download with EFS or ftp.

Extract the build tarball(s) into the xemacs-packages hierarchy from your favorite shell.

bash, csh, ksh, zsh come to mind on UNIX systems; Cygwin's bash, cmd.exe, and command.exe for Windows 95/98/NT/2000.
```
cd installation-directory/xemacs-packages;
gzip -dc build-package-tarball-path | tar -xvf -
```
