I know there are several options to obtain a > running GNU emacs of sorts. If you simply want to install and not compile then the ports package name is ‘emacs-app-devel’. But I use Homebrew. So I just copied David’s work - https://github.com/caldwell/build-emacs What I did was - I followed the instructions on the above page. It installed all the dependencies (using Homebrew). And then started building emacs from source tar (it downloads from Emacs repo). I interrupt the build. And instead, 1. Checkout Emacs repository from main git repo 2. ./configure 3. make install Now the Emacs.app is in nextstep directory. I know it is kind of rough approach but it saved a lot of time figuring out and installing dependencies.
