Truc et astuces

Running Emacs.app from the command line

Call this script “emacs” and put it somewhere in `/usr/local/bin`:

#!/bin/sh
/Applications/Emacs.app/Contents/MacOS/Emacs "$@"

Be sure to give it the execution permission.

cd /usr/local/bin   
sudo chmod +x emacs 

Changing the Modifier Keys

Easy

The easiest way is to use the Customize interface: “M-x customize-group RET ns RET”.

Hard

If you don’t like Customize and want to do it manually, the following variables control the modifier keys:

• ns-alternate-modifier
• ns-command-modifier
• ns-control-modifier
• ns-function-modifier
• ns-option-modifier (just a different name for ns-alternate-modifier)
• ns-right-alternate-modifier
• ns-right-command-modifier
• ns-right-control-modifier
• ns-right-option-modifier

Each variable can be set to ‘control, ‘meta, ‘alt, ‘super, or ‘hyper.

In addition ns-alternative-modifier (and ns-option-modifier) can be set to ‘none, which lets it get interpreted by the OS so it can be used to input special characters.

The ns-right-* variables are set to ‘left by default which makes them the same as their left counterpart.
