"fink install xemacs".
Also look at "Enhanced Carbon Emacs" especially if you edit LaTeX. Very nice. I switched to it from Xemacs. Available from: http://www.cs.man.ac.uk/~franconi/mac-emacs/
Built from a branch of the Emacs 21 for OS X CVS: http://members.shaw.ca/akochoi-emacs/


edit an html file, the carriage-return characters show up as ^M. Ugly.
Probably because they came from another OS. If you don't have ^M when you create a new file, this is the culprit. There are command-line utilities to convert, or if you stick the following into your .emacs (or your .xemacs/init.el) you can type "<Meta-X> dos-unix" in your file and it will convert it.

;; Handy functions for removing ^M from DOS files, or vice-versa.
;; Originally due to Earl Stutes in Linux Gazette#10
(defun dos-unix ()
  (interactive)
  (goto-char (point-min))
  (while (search-forward "\r" nil t) (replace-match "")))

(defun unix-dos ()
  (interactive)
  (goto-char (point-min))
  (while (search-forward "\n" nil t) (replace-match "\r\n")))
