On Jaguar get the lastest version of emacs from savannah, i.e. use :pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/cvsroot/emacs
Say "configure --without-x" and "make bootstrap" and "sudo make install". This installs in /usr/local, of course, has no x. You could also do this with x, if u=you are so inclined. This is emacs 21.3.50. Then go to directory mac and say "make-package". This creates EmacsInstaller.dmg.gz, which installs the Carbon emacs application in /Applications. The Carbon application is a complete emacs, i.e. it does not need any support files. O, and when you do this, don't forget to rename /sw to /sw.tmp, so that all of fink is masked. Otherwise the compile may fail. More generally, for some things (emacs, python, ruby, R, tcl/tk) there are better (more up-to-date, better tested) solutions than those provided by fink, but they are usually more work and harder to find.
