xemacs is fine -- I use it all the time. For Aqua purposes, I go
with BBEdit.

Except they broke the carbon emacs by adding the "multi-tty" branch
for the
next release, and aren't fixing it due to lack of talent.
Apparently the
carbon port isn't important to them any more. :( So now we're stuck
with
command-line (somewhat broken) and X11 (unsure, haven't tried that,
since I
don't fire up X11 very often), or the 22.1 release only (the last
working
carbon version).
If you're a mac developer, and appreciate emacs, please head over
to the emacs
devel list and offer your services. The previous guy abandoned it.
