Just download the cvs in one directory, do :
./configure --prefix=[INSTALL-DIR]
./make
./make install

You dont need to be root to do it. Then simply do :
/home/myself> [INSTALL-DIR]/bin/texmacs

To run you new TeXmacs.


As far as the plugins are concerned, everything is
in ~/.TeXmacs, thus you only need to switch between
different ~/.TeXmacs in order to switch between different
plugin sets.
