I'm using Emacs for X11 but when launching emacs from the X11
'Application' menu i'm missing some environment variables.
I tried to follow the advice in the FAQ to create a
~/.MacOSX/environment.plist
$ cat .MacOSX/environment.plist
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple Computer//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN"
"http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd";>
<plist version="1.0">
<dict>
<key>NNTPSERVER</key>
<string>news.cis.dfn.de</string>
<key>PATH</key>
<string>$PATH:/usr/local/bin</string>
</dict>
</plist
However, still neither one of the variables works. I'm using bash
as shell if it has any relevance.
Just making sure this wasn't a typo -- does your file have the last ">"
character? The text you pasted was missing that...
If you run "defaults read ~/.MacOSX/environment", do your variables
show up there?
