Hi Erwin,
I'm using Mac also (not Aquamacs emacs, but EmacsForMacOSX instead).
XEmacs is a completely different branch of Emacs, which I don't think
is available for OSX.
Then there is the text-mode emacs you run from the terminal.
And then there is the emacs you installed (Aquamacs), which runs on
its own graphics window (outside Terminal.app).
So don't confuse those 3 emacs versions.
You only need to install LaTeX if you want to build the documentation
(make doc). This is not strictly necessary.
Also, I have to modify the Makefile from org-mode to fit my emacs
installation. Aquamacs emacs should be similar, just check the exact
location of the Emacs application and change accordingly.
This is how my org-mode Makefile looks:
8<------------------------------------------------------------
##----------------------------------------------------------------------
## YOU MUST EDIT THE FOLLOWING LINES
##----------------------------------------------------------------------
# Name of your emacs binary
EMACS=/Applications/Emacs.app/Contents/MacOS/Emacs
# Where local software is found
prefix=/Applications/Emacs.app
# Where local lisp files go.
lispdir = $(prefix)/Contents/Resources/lisp/org
# Where info files go.
infodir = $(prefix)/Contents/Resources/info
8<------------------------------------------------------------
The rest of the Makefile you leave as is.
Hope this helps.
Regards,
.j.
