Quite a few people got back to me about that, thanks. I have compiled a series of packages to work with Andrew Choi's port and decided to release it, even though it is far from perfect. Mac users can find my configuration package at http://www.reitter-it-media.de/software/osx_emacs.html I am using this with a recent built from source; I have a link (and a mirror) of binaries from mindlube on the page for your convenience. Among the things changed by the package are: - OS X standard keyboard shortcuts: Apple-S saves a file, Apple-Q for quit, Apple-C/X/V for clipboard operations, Apple-F to find a string - and many more - Emacs has a normal menu. - When you load a file, a new window opens (Emacs calls this: a frame). ( Closing with Apple-W currently has a few glitches.) - Clipboard operations interoperate with other Mac apps. However, if you mark a chunk of text, it will be automatically copied into the clipboard. ( How can I get rid of this?) - Recent Files are available from the File menu. - Mouse Wheel works - Emacs remains extensible, so you can use special syntax coloring setups or enjoy embedded CVS support, a HTML markup menu and the like. I would like to improve this with more tweaks and welcome patches. Dave
