The emacs program is not the same thing as the Emacs app. The preset is for the 
app, not the program. So there is no reason why the preset for the Emacs app 
would work for the emacs program. You probably need a custom setting, probably 
calling the emacsclient in /usr/bin. Also, you can test out part of your setup 
by calling the emacsclient manually from the command line.

Which keybinding? There's no shortcut for backward search.
