! After Emacs is installed, you can run it by typing `emacs -nw' from a
! terminal (make sure your path contains /usr/local/bin) or by
! double-clicking on /Applications/Emacs.app in the Finder. To start
! Emacs as a GUI application from the terminal, the pathname to the
! executable in the bundle, i.e.,
/Application/Emacs.app/Contents/MacOS/Emacs
must be typed to the shell to enable Emacs to locate its resources
! correctly. You may want to create a symlink or alias to this path to
! quickly access both the terminal and GUI versions.
!
! If you are building Emacs to run on Mac OS X and X Window System,
! instead of typing `./configure' above, type
./configure --with-x
To use colors in a terminal, put the following lines in the file
~/.termcap and log in again.

! After Emacs is installed, you can run a text-only terminal version by
! typing `emacs' from a terminal (make sure your path contains
! /usr/local/bin) or a GUI application by double-clicking on

! version, some Carbon-specific functions such as `mac-set-file-creator'

/Application/Emacs.app/Contents/MacOS/Emacs
must be typed to the shell to enable Emacs to locate its resources

! access both the terminal and GUI versions. You can optionally specify
! some standard Emacs options when invoking Emacs in this way.
!
! Emacs on Mac OS X is not configured to use X11 unless either it is
! requested or the use of Carbon is disabled explicitly. So, if you are
! building Emacs to run on X Window System, you need to specify like:
./configure --with-x
+ Note that Carbon-specific functions mentioned above are not available
+ on the X11-enabled build.
To use colors in a terminal, put the following lines in the file
~/.termcap and log in again.
