Emacs comes with a GUI app that launches emacs. It would be very
helpful if there would be a GUI app that launches emacsclient. Im on
OSX, and sometimes its useful to drag a few files from my desktop to the
emacs icon on my dock. but that launches the full emacs, so its slow. it
would be nice if that app checked for a running daemon to connect to
before launching the full emacs, or if there would be a second app that
would use emacsclient.
So we shoudl either add a new app for emacsclient, or better, make that
existing app use emacsclient, and if there is no daemon, then use
full emacs.

It seems to me that
emacsclient -a "" -c
does what you want, and you should be able to bind that to whatever
action/icon you wish.

but i cannot run it with an app-script unless i give the full path to emacsclient. its a good workaround, but i think its not general enough. i dont think that this functionality is something for a dotfile or a script you make again and again for your machines. i think its something basic thats needs to be available, like the full emacs app. what do you think?
i could try to implement it, in a local branch, and then submit a pull request. would that be of interest?

I think this is how Emacs in general should work.
There should be no separate "emacsclient", only "emacs".
The first call to "emacs" would start a server by default.
Subsequent calls to "emacs" would always connect to the running Emacs,
unless you used "emacs --new-instance" or somesuch.
This is how eg Firefox works.
I don't think this is a new suggestion, eg bug#7741 explains it all.
But there's no sign of it happening.

ok then how about we actually make it work like firefox, so when you
close all windows of Emacs.app, it doesn’t quit. it stays, keeping the
instance running. so if i click on it again, it opens a new windows
connecting to the existing instance. would that make more sense?
