Which was great until tiger - the tiger version has painful
curses-related bugs, and since it only works inside a terminal (xterm,
Terminal.app) this is a problem.
> Emacsen?
Yes. Debian uses the term specifically, in the "packaging that
applies to multiple emacsen" (common byte-compiling hooks and such.)
http://home.att.ne.jp/alpha/z123/emacs-mac-e.html
is the one I've been using, also built pretty closely from CVS (it
even thinks it is a 22.x emacs now :) and has cool things like
do-applescript.
There's also an emacs in fink, if you want one with terminal + X11
support instead of Carbon.
