Can we use other user as fml process ? Run configure with --with-fml-owner option. configure --with-fml-owner=$USER Do not use your own account but use fml specific user for all fml processes.

When should we change use to fml in installation ? In installation. You can download source code and run configure by not user root (e.g. user fml), but run "make install" by user root. It may be better to run by user too always. Can we install &fml8; without document. Yes by default. &fml8; does not install document. If you need documentation, please install ./SOURCE/Documentation/ into /usr/local/share/doc/fml8/$FML_VERSION/. Can we specify per path in installation ? No directly. Run configure with proper environment variable PATH. % env PATH=/some/where/:$PATH sh configure Can we use jperl ? Unknown. Can we overwrite elena ML ? Run "makefml newml" with --force option. % makefml --force newml elena Can we edit alias files under /var/spool/ml/etc ? Yes but please control them by yourself.
