Hi, about the status of Emacs on the Mac:
* there seem to be dozens of unofficial Emacs/Mac pages on the web, more or less unmaintained, outdated, and Mr Choi, who seems to have created the carbon port, has quit
 * the unofficial version floating around on the web is 21.3.something
it works, but it only has one font, which is why I don't use emacs right now * I just noticed that 21.4 was recently released. The GNU project page says Mac OS X is a supported platform. I downloaded it, but ./configure says it is not supported. etc/MACHINES only mentions YellowDogLinux/PPC, no Mac in there.

What is the official status of Emacs on the web? What is the most current info page that is maintained (is there one?)? If there is a current working Emacs, does anyone know how to get normal fonts working and set that in the .emacs file? (I also found dozens of outdated webpages on that topic; most of their hints didn't work for my emacs 21.3.X)...

Thanks for your help, Ulrich
