GNU Emacs for Mac OS X

 [image of the Head of a GNU]

I've set up a script to build GNU Emacs every so often. The script I run basically just configures and builds right from the GNU source--I don't add any patches or any extraneous lisp packages. I'm considering changing the icon since I like the old carbon icon (above) better than the new cocoa icon. By the way, did you know the main Emacs build recently dumped the carbon port for the cocoa/GNUstep port? I only found out when my script broke (there's no mac/ directory any more).

I build three different release flavors of Emacs:

  1. CVS snapshots: These are bleeding edge builds and may have bugs. I try to build these nightly.
  2. Pretests: These are much more stable and are meant for vetting the code for last minute bugs before a final release.
  3. Official releases: These should be more stable but are not released very often.

They will all build on whatever version of OS X I happen to be using at the time and so these may or may not work for you. The script is on my laptop which may or may not be on at the time the cron job should trigger, so it may miss a day here and there.

If you download a build, please use the thumbs up and thumbs down pointer for that build to indicate whether or not it worked for you (rather than sending me email). Any by "worked for you" I mean only give it a thumbs down if it crashes and burns or doesn't start up or something, it's not supposed to be about whether you like it or not... Thanks.

Note: PowerPC builds are working again (from CVS) and so I've modified my scripts so that the CVS nightlies output universal binaries now. Yay!
