ah pity

then the chapter 2 of install book shouldn't say that emacs is only
necessary if one wants java swarm.

could you please explain what you use emacs there for? couldn't
something lighter and wider-spread be used for that? sorry if i sound
complaining, but i'm about to install 20M of a text-editor just to
compile a library and my internet connection is slow and expensive :(
