This "Cocoa" Emacs should know mac-function-modifier, mac-control- 
modifier, mac-command-modifier, and mac-option-modifier (plus mac- 
right-command-modifier, mac-right-control-modifier, mac-right-option- 
modifier). Their values can be (quoted) ctrl (or control?), alt, meta,  
super, hyper, or nil (unquoted). They're aliases of:

	ns-alternate-modifier
	   This variable describes the behavior of the alternate or option key.
	ns-command-modifier
	   This variable describes the behavior of the command key.
	ns-control-modifier
	   This variable describes the behavior of the control key.
	ns-function-modifier
	   This variable describes the behavior of the function key (on  
laptops).
	ns-option-modifier
	ns-right-alternate-modifier
	   This variable describes the behavior of the right alternate or  
option key.
	ns-right-command-modifier
	   This variable describes the behavior of the right command key.
	ns-right-control-modifier
	   This variable describes the behavior of the right control key.
	ns-right-option-modifier

Making any of them nil makes them available to Mac OS X, i.e., allows  
Mac OS X to choose the corresponding layer of the key definitions.  
Launch the "virtual keyboard" to see whether the keys still work in  
Mac OS X (when the text cursor is in Emacs).

To have an init file that works with Carbon (22.x) and NS or "Cocoa"  
Emacsen (20-24.x) and the AppKit Emacs (something like "Carbon Emacs"  
23.x) you can use the mac-*-modifier variables.
