This directory contains the files needed to build Emacs on the Mac OS
|
|
Classic and Mac OS X. Many of the major features of the Unix version
|
|
are supported: multiple frames, colors, scroll bars, menu bars, use of
|
|
the mouse, fontsets, international characters, input methods, and
|
|
coding systems.
|
|
|
|
Mac OS specific support includes document drag-and-drop in the Finder,
|
|
transfer of text to and from other applications via the clipboard, and
|
|
sending AppleScript commands to other applications from Emacs.
|
|
|
|
The following are not supported on Mac OS Classic: unexec (dump-emacs),
|
|
asynchronous subprocesses (start-process), and networking
|
|
(open-network-stream). These features work fine on Mac OS X.
|
|
|
|
There is basic support for synchronous subprocesses (call-process) on
|
|
Mac OS Classic (non-Carbon build only) although Unix commands that are
|
|
used will need to be ported.
|
|
|
|
MPW-GM (August 2001) can be used to build Emacs on the Mac OS Classic.
|
|
On Mac OS X, Emacs can be built using the Developer Tools. See the
|
|
INSTALL file in this directory for instructions on building Emacs.
|
|
|
|
Read the Mac OS section of the on-line help to find out about how to
|
|
use Emacs on the Mac.
|
|
|
|
A number of things do not work yet:
|
|
|
|
+ Support for PostScript image type is not available.
|
|
|
|
+ Incorporate Apple's wrappers to be able to create a universal
|
|
binary that unexecs on first run for the given architecture.
|
|
|
|
If your Mac is connected to the Internet, report bugs by typing `M-x
|
|
report-emacs-bug' or by choosing the entry `Send Bug Report...' in
|
|
the `Help' menu. This will send the bug report to the address
|
|
emacs-pretest-bug@gnu.org.
