Hi Peter,
regarding this bug: please try rebuilding with an updated CVS.  I have  
just checked in a few changes that may fix this (by not loading  
org.gnu.Emacs.plist any longer).

Thanks
- David

I managed to solve the issue by editing the PLIST file. I don't think  
I'll rebuild Emacs.app this week or this month – the X client needs  
some work and investigation. Maybe in April ...

The new interface is faulty: setting some value pops up a form  
without the usual Aqua interface of the three colourful dots. When I  
press Yes a crash seems to happen, which I did not want to report. So  
the CrashReporter interface went away, but the Yes/No interface  
stayed. And Emacs.app. Both don't go away.

Sounds bad, but I don't understand what's happening.  Do you mean the  
color panel?
Setting which value??
If you can reproduce, please file a proper bug report (separately).   
The trace would be helpful, of course.

No.

> Setting which value??

In *Customize Group: Holidays* the value to mark holidays initially  
in *Calendar* buffer. When I press the Toggle button and then press  
the "Set for current session" button I get asked whether all values  
should be set according to this buffer. This question is already non- 
sense – what do I care for Chinese or Islamic or Bahai holidays?! But  
OK, maybe this the new default behaviour when customising a group of  
settings ...

And the crash seems to happen after a time period, independent of  
whether I press Yes or No.

OK, can be done!

Some of the options are gone or have been merged with standard Emacs  
options, others are available via the normal customization interface  
(M-x customize-group RET ns RET), to which we are going to add  
remaining options that make sense only on NS/Cocoa (if you know any,  
let me or Adrian know).

I think we should add the Ns group to the top-level customization  
group.  Users are not going to find this stuff otherwise.

The key binding is incorrect. Pressing ⌘-, Emacs.app reports:  
Symbol's function definition is void: ns-popup-prefs-panel. The  
correct key binding would obviously be: ns-show-prefs.

Thank you, I just installed a fix.  The correct binding is customize.   
ns-show-prefs is the event.

In the NS port, ns-option-modifier is `meta' by default, so this is  
logical.
I presume you had a customization.

Adrian, should we change this to match the Carbon Emacs default?
Your ns-compatibility-mode (forgot exact name) could change that, of  
course, but without it, we don't have too many Mac like keys bound.   
Traditional Emacs users tend to want a Meta key, while most users of  
non-English keyboard layouts will need Option very regularly to do  
tasks often done in Emacs {like C/Java/... programming}.

This is bad default, possibly applicable for a simple US keyboard.  
When the system language default is non-US and the script is Latin  
based then Meta should be Command and Alt left as Alt.

Could be done, but I think we should stick to one default for all  
layouts.

This may have to wait until Adrian is back from his travels.

Hi,

I will just give my thoughts on this, but since this port is a  
community project it is not necessarily my decision what to do.

The reason to prefer command = command is that emacs can then use  
similar accelerator keybindings to other os x apps.  The reason to  
prefer command = meta is that emacs can use similar non-ascii latin  
character entry to other os x apps.  Which is preferred for a given  
user depends on two questions:

1) is the user in continental Europe?
2) is the user editing code or text?

Why (2)?  Now that I've been living on the continent myself for a  
while, I've noticed that programmers here often just use a US  
keyboard layout even if they have a physically non-US keyboard.  It's  
just too much of a hassle to get commonly-needed special characters  
otherwise.

So my feeling is that the command=meta option is preferred by text- 
writing Continentals, while command = command is likely preferred by  
everyone else.  I am not sure which group makes up a larger subset of  
OS X emacs users.

I do know that I received a few complaints over the years from folks  
disliking the Emacs.app command=command default.  My answer was  
always to rehash the above and note that it's easy to change it --  
just flip a combo box in the prefs panel.  Now that it's not so easy  
(I guess figuring out the existence of ns/mac-command-modifier  
variable and writing suitable elisp to .emacs is necessary), the  
default setting becomes more important.


>> Could be done, but I think we should stick to one default for all

I agree with both of these.  So perhaps the best default would be  
command=command (super), alt=none, and the user can set a meta key  
(additional to esc+) if he/she desires.

Well, a pretty stable 50% of all Aquamacs users are US based.

That's right.  Similarly, I have received plenty of complaints about  
Option=Meta, especially in the early days of Aquamacs.

Well, that would be another alternative - maybe a good one.  It's my  
second-preferred variant.

The reason why I support Command=Meta for Emacs 23 is experience from  
working with Aquamacs and Carbon Emacs users.  It seems to me that  
there is a division between Emacs traditionalists, who would like an  
Emacs with maximum compatibility across platforms.  These people don't  
need/want Mac keybindings.  On the other end, you find people with the  
need for cross-application integration.  Unsurprisingly, that's the  
typical Aquamacs user, while the traditionalists compile Emacs from  
scratch or use a distribution like Carbon Emacs Package.

Due to this polarization, I think that it is sensible to Emacs Emacs- 
compatible.  Because otherwise, I'm not sure who's going to fill the  
void.

(That said, Meta=Esc is a perfectly acceptable default setting, too.   
Just not my #1 choice.)

Do W32 users face this same issue?  That is, does 'alt' play the same  
role on their non-US keyboards as it does on the Mac ones?  Can we  
follow Emacs on W32 in that case?

IMHO Command is too heavily used on the Mac to simply throw under the  
bus by default -- the very user who will like emacs or uses it on  
other platforms is exactly the one already using cmd-shortcuts in  
other apps on the Mac.  Further, "traditionalists" are most prepared  
to get their hands dirty and set up a command=meta mapping if they  
want it.  Whereas a less savvy, single-platform user coming to  
Emacs.app from Text Edit, XCode, etc. will be most at home with  
command=super and alt=alt.  As they learn emacs more, they can make  
their own decision about which key to give up for meta if they  
dislike esc+.

In any case the information about these key settings should be easily  
accessible to users and the method of changing them should be easy.   
This could be done with a customization buffer hyperlinked from  
either the splash screen or a help menu item.  This could be  
reconciled with the desire to keep the interface uniform across all  
platforms by allowing a sentence on splash or a single menu item  
under Help for platform-specific information.

I wouldn't mind if command=super by default – provided some key  
bindings are reserved for Mac OS X (copy, paste, maximise/minimise,  
hide/unhide, maybe also new frame and preferences/customisation), a  
three button can be emulated, and the standard Meta key bindings of  
GNU Emacs are also available as super key bindings (for example M-g g/ 
M-g M-g, which collides with s-g, isearch-repeat-forward).

They have a Windows key...

Their issue is that standard key combos like C-x, C-c, C-v collide  
with Emacs bindings.  CUA solved the issue in some way.

I've had pretty nasty complaints from people who said that they hit  
"Command Q" (to fill) because that's what they're used to from Unix  
systems and their keyboards, and then the app quit on them.

Well, like I said in my earlier e-mail, I don't think you can make  
everyone happy.  And there are SO many things to upset and derail the  
newbie user that I wouldn't try to go for a compromise.

That's a good idea.  As per the other e-mail: the top-level  
customization group should contain "ns" (or "nextstep"), along with a  
note that these are the Mac specific settings, also (because NS isn't  
really Mac lingo).

AltGr is distinct from Alt on Windows, so non-US users just lose one of 
the meta keys on their keyboard.  There are some users who prefer to use 
Alt to access the menus though, and use the windows keys for meta.  
Currently this requires a patched version of Emacs to work properly, we 
have papers from the author, we are just waiting for the author to clean 
up the patch so we can install it, for 23.2 now.

Naive suggestion mabe, but as most (all?) Macs also have left- and right-  
Alt keys, can't one be used as meta and the other kept as alt?

Hello!

When I build Emacs.app from source from yesterday evening (18:00 UTC)

	In GNU Emacs 23.0.60.1 (powerpc-apple-darwin8.11.0, NS apple- 
appkit-824.48)

or today (12:00 UTC)

and have these settings after I've launched it as 'nextstep/Emacs.app/ 
Contents/MacOS/Emacs -Q --debug-init' (after a 'sudo make install')

	Important settings:
	  value of $LC_ALL: nil
	  value of $LC_COLLATE: nil
	  value of $LC_CTYPE: de_DE.UTF-8
	  value of $LC_MESSAGES: nil
	  value of $LC_MONETARY: nil
	  value of $LC_NUMERIC: nil
	  value of $LC_TIME: nil
	  value of $LANG: de_DE.UTF-8
	  value of $XMODIFIERS: nil
	  locale-coding-system: utf-8-unix
	  default-enable-multibyte-characters: t
	
	Major mode: Lisp Interaction
	
	Minor modes in effect:
	  tooltip-mode: t
	  mouse-wheel-mode: t
	  menu-bar-mode: t
	  file-name-shadow-mode: t
	  global-font-lock-mode: t
	  font-lock-mode: t
	  global-auto-composition-mode: t
	  auto-composition-mode: t
	  auto-encryption-mode: t
	  auto-compression-mode: t
	  line-number-mode: t
	  transient-mark-mode: t
	
	Recent input:
	<ns-new-frame> <menu-bar> <help-menu> <send-emacs-
	bug-report>

I get completely transparent background of the windows. Only the  
frame's decoration (scroll-bar, tabbar), mode-line and the fringe's  
decoration are opaque, text looks frayed out/worn out. When I launch  
it the regular way then most colours are incorrect. And when I then  
pick into the *temp* buffer, I activate the Aqua client behind  
Emacs.app. Otool -L reports:
