Hyperbole and ways to browse notes

[Ryan Schram]

Hi,

Has anyone gotten Hyperbole 4.x to work on GNU Emacs 21.3.50 (Mac OS X) 
or thereabouts? I have downloaded the ftp.gnu.org and sourceforge.net 
tarballs and tried to make. Each seems to be missing files that the 
Makefile chokes on. If someone could point me to a complete distro or a 
guide to editing the Makefile, I'd really appreciate it. 

I'm also curious about other forms of hypertext support for Emacs. I am 
working on developing a markup format for notes (ethnographic 
fieldnotes, to be precise), and I'd like to be able to store, index, 
annotate notes, and link between notes. Any alternatives to Hyperbole? 

Thanks, 
Ryan
