Otherwise you have two other alternatives: - Aquamacs : an emacs with a native Mac User Interface, highly reconfigured for a multi (Mac-)windows mode of use. (I don't like it, I prefer to have the same emacs configuration on all my systems). http://aquamacs.org - GNU emacs for Mac which is the normal emacs, as a MacOSX application. (It is perfectly usable, like the similar on MS-Windows I must say. Yay for GNU emacs!) http://emacsformacosx.com -- __Pascal Bourguignon__ http://www.informatimago.com
