So I've officially switched to carbon emacs, and I'm loving it. Is there a way to launch a second instance - double-clicking the executable seems to just bring the original instance to the foreground. Feel free to tell me I'm Doing It Wrong, but when working on two trees simultaneously I like to

Thanks for all answers! I think I'll use CarbonEmacs for editing (it's great, my entire .emacs finally works) and Xcode for compiling. Aquamacs just landed in the trash. It's nice that Xcode supports some Emacs keybindings - I didn't know that. That's a feature of OS X, these keybindings

I've been using Aquamacs, although I don't like the fact that it has *so many* modes built-in and turned-on by default, and I also don't like the fact that it doesn't lend itself well to customization (it has its own set of initialization files it keeps hidden off). It's decent, though (but again,

I heartily recommend MacVim ( http://code.google.com/p/macvim/ ). I hear its fullscreen mode is pretty rad :-P Having said that, XCode – like most OS X apps – support some emacs keybindings. Your Remove entire line example is ctrl-a ctrl-k ctrl-k in XCode. I usually use some mix of MacVim and

Carbon Emacs makes the Alt key work right, and copy/paste to the system pasteboard works like I expect w/in emacs. I find using emacs w/in Terminal.app to be annoying enough that I use emacsclient to throw edits out to Emacs.app. -scott On Tue, Nov 3, 2009 at 2:21 PM, Drew Wilson
