Description : The GNU Emacs editor on GNUstep
This is GNU Emacs ported to OS X and GNUstep, based on the earlier
Rhapsody, OPENSTEP, and NeXTSTEP versions.
.
This port offers superior platform support for MacOS X and GNUstep,
including full desktop integration (dock, drag/drop, etc.), standard
keybindings, use of standard Font, Color, and File open/save panels,
and support for Services. Via GNUstep, it provides anti-aliased font
rendering on Linux and other Unix systems.
.
The port is based on GNU Emacs 20.7, which is one behind the latest
version. Emacs 21 added mostly UI features, not core editing
functionality. The UI is nicer though and furthermore some Lisp packages
have started requiring Emacs 21. So there are plans to update this port
to version 21 once the 20.7-based version is fully stabilized. Contact
the developers to get involved.
