Obtain Memacs

using one of github download mechanisms OR

- you might as well want to use virtualenv before
make sure that you have Python v2.7 installed

Choose the modules you want to use

read the files in the docs folder

Set up one module after another

please do read docs/FAQs_and_Best_Practices.org
- it contains many tips and tricks on how to meet your requirements and on how to choose a reasonable setup
start the module of your choice with the argument --help
- modules are located in the bin sub-folder
- for example: /memacs/bin % ./memacs_svn.py --help
- each module has some general arguments and module-specific arguments
you probably want to develop and test a module invocation in the command line and when it works:
set up a periodical invocation
