Aquamacs is a Mac-like distribution of the powerful Emacs text editor. By "mac-like", we mean more than just the fact that this version of Emacs runs as a standard OS X application. Aquamacs features extensive customization that enables it to conform better with Apple's standard Human Interface Guidelines (HIG) than standard versions of the editor do.

Emacs is a text editor of legendary power and configurability, but it also has an enormously complex interface that, while consistent across platforms, is usually at odds with the specific interface conventions of the particular platform on which it is being used. The same applies to the OS X version of GNU Emacs, called Carbon Emacs. Aquamacs is different - it provides a more Mac-like user experience and the comfort you've come to expect from other excellent Mac programs. It builds on GNU Emacs 22, however, so you'll be able to use all your favorite extensions (and even the good-old Emacs key bindings, if you like!).

What's New:
  • Frames (windows) now have a little icon in the title bar for the selected buffer, and you can drag&drop this to other applications. Patch by Mitsuharu Yamamoto
  • Clicking the Dock icon of Aquamacs will now bring up a minimized frame, if there is no other frame to be shown - just like in any OS X application. Suggested by Frank Atanassow
  • Fonts can now be selected comfortably with the OS X standard font selector, accessible via "Options -> Show Fonts". Remember - to make a setting stick, use the "Frame Appearance Styles". Set the new style either for the given major mode, or as a default. Patch by Mitsuharu Yamamoto
  • C-n and C-p are now mapped to `next-line' / `previous-line' again, so they may be used to jump full lines (as defined by carriage returns) - even if the lines are wrapped around. The arrow keys move the cursor visually as before. Suggested by Tom van Vleck
  • Apple-` now cycles through all the frames, not just the topmost two. Reported by William Henney
  • Apple-: now spell-checks the buffer, provided ispell is installed. Suggested by Jean-Christophe Helary
  • Apple-Shift-S will now bring up a file selector rather than prompting for a file name in the minibuffer. If you prefer the Emacs-style prompt, you should use the Emacs-style key binding: C-x C-w. Suggested by Jean-Christophe Helary
  • Emulate-Mac-Keyboard-Mode: improved support for French keyboard layouts
  • ESS 5.3.0 included
  • SLIME - the Superior Lisp Interaction Mode is now available with Aquamacs. It's pre-configured for you. Use `lisp-mode' for your Lisp editing, and run M-x slime to start a lisp inferior process. You may need to set the variable `inferior-lisp-program' via customization or in your Preferences.el as follows:
  • (setq inferior-lisp-program "path to lisp")
  • C++ Mode is used automatically for .cp files.
  • Keyboard bug-fix: certain keys could not be successfully input on certain keyboard layouts, most notably the key combination C-c ` as used in LaTeX mode (AUCTeX) was not available on German keyboards. Patch by Taiichi Hashimoto
  • Ispell/LaTeX bug-fix: ispell will now ignore TeX commands in such buffers. Patch by Bill Rising.
