Re: emacsclient 22 and 23 incompatibility

[CHENG Gao]

A solution is to install a command line only version of Emacs 23.1 to
repalce 22.1.1 in MacOSX.

The plan I have is to 

1. Install a command line only version to /usr/local

2. Install Cocoa port building with:
./configure --with-ns --disable-ns-self-contained

This way /usr/local/share/emacs/site-lisp can be used by two
installations.

It's useful when installing some Emacs packages. Without a command line
Emacs 23, Emacs 22 in /usr/bin is often choosen if you forget to use:

./configre --with-emacs=/Applications/Emacs.app/Contents/MacOS/Emacs

That can mean a lot of trouble.

I have not installed command line version yet, but I plan to.


BTW, I have a question.

Apple's original installation of emacs 22 has (in /usr/bin):

,----
| -r-xr-xr-x  1 root  wheel     38544  2  6  2008 emacs
| -rwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  13072480 12 17  2008 emacs-i386
| -rwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel   5301856 11 25  2008 emacs-undumped
`----
Does this mean:
the first emacs is dumped? How could it be so small?


Please pay attention to size of three files.

My build of Emacs 23.1 has:
,----
| -rwxr-xr-x  2 chenggao  staff  8916252  8  2 03:51 emacs
| -rwxr-xr-x  2 chenggao  staff  8916252  7 31 15:31 emacs-23.1.1
| -rwxr-xr-x  2 chenggao  staff  8916252  8  2 03:51 emacs-23.1.2
`----

emacs-23.1.2 is made with 
,----
| temacs -batch -l loadup dump
`----
while I try to dump emacs (since I think original build is undumped).


So this means while installing, emacs is dumped. Where is the undumped
emacs?
