/*
 This is a nix expression to build Emacs and some Emacs packages I like
 from source on any distribution where Nix is installed. This will install
 all the dependencies from the nixpkgs repository and build the binary files
 without interfering with the host distribution.
 
 To build the project, type the following from the current directory:
 
 $ nix-build emacs.nix
 
 To run the newly compiled executable:
 
 $ ./result/bin/emacs
