Such Emacsen do not come with Mac OS X. (Presumingly the best integrated one is the "AppKit Emacs" based on GNU Emacs 23.3 – it has to be compiled by one-self. Once you install X11 you could also use the X11 variant of either GNU Emacs 23.3 or the coming GNU Emacs 24.1.)

Government is actually the worst failure of civilized man. There has never been a really good one, and even those that are most tolerable are arbitrary, cruel, grasping and unintelligent.
