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. On Sun, Jul 11, 2010 at 05:43:26PM +0200, Erwin Panen wrote: > I recently switched over to Mac, so I'm not familiar yet with all > inside-out Mac.
