All,
I just recently purchased one of the newer Macbook Pro (M1) 14-inch. So I
downloaded a new version of emacs from https://emacsformacosx.com. It
seems fine with my current set of customizations, however, there is one
oddity.
It will not open a file from the terminal. If I give it the command "open
-a /Applications/Emacs.app <filename>", it does not open the file since it
is looking in my home director (~/) not in my current directory.
I did a search on both google and EmacsWiki but could not find a solution
or even a problem description. What would be the configuration button for
opening in the current directory? I am currently working around it by
entering the full path name on the command line, but that is rather
annoying. I can fix this in the little zsh function I wrote to get the
file as its full path but I wanted to see if there is something
configurable in emacs.
I am using emacs 28.2 -
GNU Emacs 28.2 (build 1, aarch64-apple-darwin21.1.0, NS appkit-2113.00
Version 12.0.1 (Build 21A559)) of 2022-09-12

Thanks,
