There don't seem to be instructions for compiling/installing on Ubuntu.
How is that done?

TeXmacs depends on a Guile, so we need to build guile first. For this enter the following commands.

wget https://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/guile/guile-1.8.8.tar.gz
tar xzf guile-1.8.8.tar.gz
cd guile-1.8.8
./configure --disable-error-on-warning
make -j 12


The compilation of Guile stops on my computer with

../scripts/snarf-check-and-output-texi          > guile-procedures.texi || { rm guile-procedures.texi; false; }
../scripts/snarf-check-and-output-texi: 4: exec: /home/giovanni/Software/Other: not found


That was because the name of the directory above the one that I was compiling in contained a space. Corrected that, compilation stopped with a segmentation fault; that in turn was corrected by applying the patch at https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-guile/2012-07/msg00011.html


Finally, I suspect the grandparent post asked about compiling Mogan, not TeXmacs. But I appreciated the instructions for compiling TeXmacs :-)
