(variant) Install Aquamacs, which also comes with ESS and AUCTeX.
There are differning opinions about Aquamacs (Macified version of emacs and bundled with some packages) or emacs - I decided (after using Linux for several years) to use emacs, due to 1) compatibility with other OS (different config files for emacs and Aquamacs) 2) Same keyboard shortcuts between OS 3) newer versions of emacs then used in Aquamacs But I am sure Aquamacs makes some things easier then using emacs, but I think emacs fits better tigether with the idea of using homebrew, while Aquamacs fits better to the approach of using native Mac installers.
