OK. This is the problem with making the Readme file too explicit: It
helps people who are not familiar with emacs, until the Readme
becomes obsolete. What we said worked for the old mindlube installs,
which were for 10.2 and 10.3; you can still find them on the side of
the mindlube site. Mindlube did not make a new 10.4 build... And
recommend the Aquamacs build, which as you said creates name issues.
Sigh.
Otherwise, Steven Elkins is right about the quoted tweak. It will
work. I guess someone (no, I did not just volunteer...) should
rebuild the package with the tweak in. And also an updated README,
but I have no clue where to find a nice GNUEmacs build for Tiger. Not
that I need to, Google knows. This will do ;-)

Now, can someone else look inside Mozart and make sure it can cope
with spaces in the EMACS shell variable path?

Objet : Installation problem report -MacOSX
MacOSX 10.4.2 (Tiger)
Install the package file.
Install Aquamacs Emacs which is the one now listed at the
Emacs download site you mention in the MacOS install README file.
Place the recommended lines in ~/.emacs
One difference is that the Aquamacs path is
Applications/Aquamacs Emacs.app/... instead of
Applications/Emacs.app/...
This caused problems in the bash EXPORT line
(it didn't like the space in the name) so
I renamed Aquamacs Emacs.app to Emacs.app
Now when I type oz in a bash shell in terminal window,
the Aquamacs Emacs comes up with a split (multi-buffer) screen, with
an Oz buffer and Oz Compiler buffer (at bottom of screen)
But the last line of the window (just under *Oz Compiler* buffer
header line)
says:
error in process filter: Buffer is read-only: #<buffer *Oz Compiler*>
And this apparently locks up the whole emacs. I can't type into any
buffer.
-----------
When I start oz by Esc-x oz-new-buffer (first launching Aquamacs
emacs)
I get
Loading jit-lock...done
On feeding the helloworld example call, I get:
Loading mozart...done
Oz started.
error in process filter: byte-code: Buffer is read-only: #<buffer
*Oz Compiler*>
error in process filter: Buffer is read-only: #<buffer *Oz Compiler*>
In this case, Emacs still works, but oz isn't working.
Any hints? I'm not an expert emacs user.
Thanks
Eric Hawthorne
