1.1 Getting Started

To install Sepia, its Emacs Lisp files must be in Emacs' load-path, and the lib directory must be in Perl's @INC. Assuming that Sepia has been unpacked in ~/sepia, it can be installed by adding the following lines to ~/.emacs:

     (add-to-list 'load-path "~/sepia")
     (setq sepia-perl5lib (list (expand-file-name "~/sepia/lib")))
     (defalias 'perl-mode 'sepia-mode)
     (require 'sepia)

Then to bring up the interactive Perl prompt, type M-x sepia-repl.
