That can make it difficult to share a single ~/.emacs file between different platforms, or at least it requires that you perform the same customization in two different ways (e.g., modifying nxml-child-indent on Aquamacs, and sgml-basic-offset on GNU Emacs). GNU Emacs 22.2.1 and Aquamacs Emacs 1.4 contain different versions of different packages (e.g., GNU Emacs opens XML files using sgml-mode.el Aquamacs opens XML files using nxml-mode.el). You can use Mac keyboard shortcuts, e.g., Command-C to copy and Command-V to paste.
If your goal is to have an Emacs which acts like Emacs, but plays nicely with OS X – files can be dragged and dropped onto its Dock icon and onto its windows, text can be copied and pasted easily between Emacs and other OS X applications – then it’s not terribly hard to get vanilla GNU Emacs to do just that.Īquamacs Emacs has nice pretty toolbar icons, pretty Safari-like tabs, and (by default, but this can be turned off easily) opens each buffer in its own window. If your goal is to have a version of Emacs which acts as much like an OS X app as it possibly can, then you should download Aquamacs Emacs. … Is, it turns out, much easier than it was the last time I tried.
