You can't tunnel Cocoa/Carbon so Carbon Emacs is > useless for that purpose (unless it's compiled with X11 support besides > Carbon...). I run R within Aquamacs (a Cocoa version of Emacs). By invoking a shell (M-x shell), then ssh -Y me@servername I can start R on my server and send lines of R code across after "M-x ess-remote". New graphs open in a X11 window. I plot final versions to pdf and rsync these back to my mac. This way I can have all my scripts locally and enjoy the benefits of Aquamacs. For jobs that take hours to run I rsync scripts and data to the server and execute with nohup.
