The steps I took are exactly those as detailed on the web page I referenced in my original message, ie: curl -O ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/texinfo/texinfo-4.3.tar.gz tar zxf texinfo-4.3.tar.gz cd texinfo-4.3 CFLAGS="-g -O2 -D_INTL_REDIRECT_MACROS" ./configure make sudo make install cd .. cvs -d:pserver:anoncvs@subversions.gnu.org:/cvsroot/emacs login cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anoncvs@subversions.gnu.org:/cvsroot/emacs co emacs cd emacs ./configure --with-carbon --without-x make bootstrap sudo make install Hans-Peter Binder wrote: > the right way is to type emacs -nw Gee, thanks. The abort() is called from the following line: if (!(mwp->mWP = GetNewCWindow (WINDOW_RESOURCE, NULL, (WindowPtr) -1))) abort (); The Mac help says of GetNewCWindow: "If GetNewCWindow is unable to read the window or window definition function from the resource file, it returns null." I'm afraid I don't know what the resource file is or why GetNewCWindow would be unable to read from it. Any further pointers gratefully received. Ashley.
