Where can I get Emacs for my Apple computer?
============================================

   An unofficial port of GNU Emacs 18.59 to the Macintosh is available
at a number of ftp sites, the home being
`ftp://ftp.cs.cornell.edu/pub/parmet/Emacs-1.17.sit.bin'.

   A port of Emacs 20.4 is available at
`http://www.cs.hku.hk/~choi/emacs/index.html'.

   Beginning with version 21.1, the Macintosh is supported in the
official Emacs distribution; see the files `mac/README' and
`mac/INSTALL' in the Emacs distribution for build instructions.

   Apple's forthcoming "OS X" is based largely on NeXTSTEP and OpenStep.
Note: Emacs for NeXTSTEP, for more details about that version.
