Advice on how to get gnuserv functionality now that the gnuserv binary is no
longer shipped with OS X High Sierra? My elisp follows. Quick scan of MacPorts
and Homebrew didn't reveal an obvious package to install that provides it.
JDO
(if window-system-not-nil
(progn
(autoload 'gnuserv-start "gnuserv-compat"
"Allow this Emacs process to be a server for client processes." t)
(gnuserv-start)
(server-start)
)
)
error with gnuserv-start:
"Searching for program: No such file or directory, gnuserv"

I think you should be able to replace that with just (server-start),
and use emacsclient, which on my system is available at:
/Applications/Emacs.app/Contents/MacOS/bin/emacsclient
The exact place may vary depending on where it’s installed and how you
did it.

AFAIK `gnuserv` has been superseded by `emacsclient` (distributed with
Emacs) many years ago (must have been Emacs-22 if not earlier).
