I would use Options -> Appearance to set a monospaced font (Monaco for instance) for the mode. It may well be that this function in org-mode is ancient enough to assume that all fonts are mono-spaced, see posting below. - David -- http://aquamacs.org -- Aquamacs: Emacs on Mac OS X http://aquamacs.org/donate -- Could we help you? Return the favor and support the Aquamacs Project! From: Carsten Dominik Tue, 21 Oct 2008 01:37:54 -0700 Hi Larry, this has come up before. You need to use a fixed-width chinese font as your default font, one where each character will occupy exactly two (or 1 or 3) ascii character widths. Org is smart enough to deal with integer width characters (quite a feat already, I assure you), but it cannot and likely never will handle variable width fonts. - Carsten -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

That did the job! The columns did adjust automagically once I changed from Lucida to Monaco.

Without knowing the failure message, try adding the ".app" and using forward slashes in the right places so that it's actually a valid path: /Applications/Aquamacs\ Emacs.app/Contents/MacOS/Aquamacs\ Emacs Alternatively, you could use "emacsclient" /Applications/Aquamacs\ Emacs.app/Contents/MacOS/bin/emacsclient This requires Aquamacs to run and (server-start) in your Preferences.el (or a manual M-x server-start). The third possibility lies in the "aquamacs" command line tool that Aquamacs 1.6 can install (Tools menu).

I need to appologize -- I sent my message too hastily, and I was shocked when I saw what I wrote! I actually had typed the command with the correct /'s and the .app into a bash shell terminal, seent that it worked, then copy-pasted into the .muttrc. I found where to look for the mutt error messages (which I hadn't known before -- within mutt, it just flashes a brief 'didn't work' type message in thes status bar, too fast to copy. I found that a single \ doesn't escape the blank in mutrc -- hence it was trying to find a something called /ApplicationsAquamacs. By escaping the \ with another \, it now works. Thanks again. I probably have somemore questions about this usage, but I'll see if I can figure out the answers first.

It is a versatile, fast and mature editor for source code, web pages, typesetting documents and all other forms of text. Emacs is a text editor of legendary flexibility and has made millions of programmers and writers very productive. Numerous packages allow users to extend its functionality. Aquamacs is adapted to the Mac's "Aqua" user interface. That means more than just the fact that this version of Emacs runs as a standard OS X application. Earlier versions of Emacs also had an enormously complex user interface. That is different in Aquamacs, which behaves the way Mac users expect. Aquamacs looks good and integrates well with other applications on the Mac. Normal OS X keyboard commands are offered along with the extended Emacs ones. No complicated installation is needed. Yet it's still a real Emacs with all the ergonomy and extensibility that this world-class editor is famous for. Aquamacs Emacs 1.6 includes the following improvements: * Tabs are now on by default in new installations. * Colors and fonts for different editing modes are now easier to customize. * Word wrap now conforms to standard Mac conventions. * Additional and updated editing modes (Wikipedia, Python, etc.). * Can now open files directly from Terminal. * Improved zoom and full-screen editing function. * Additional bug fixes and feature enhancements. The full list of changes is available at http://aquamacs.org/download.shtml#changelog Founded by the father of Free Software, Richard M. Stallman, Emacs has a long history that began some thirty years ago. Emacs has now a thriving community of volunteer developers. Aquamacs includes the latest GNU Emacs and is maintained by David Reitter and his team of enthusiastic users, Mac lovers and Emacs experts. Aquamacs is Free Software and open-source. It is a universal binary, supporting both PPC and Intel, and requires Mac OS X 10.4 or newer to run. Downloads and more information are available at http:// aquamacs.org. -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

Message-ID: <20090113190710.GA285@cox.net> I've been using Aquamacs emacs for a day now, and just installed 1.6. Although I haven't used emacs for many years (and then, never became really proficient) I'm finding this version very nice. I feel sort of guilty giving up Vim after all this time, though. To my question: Is there an "easy" way to get headers and footers when printing? Does the "preview and print" menu item use Cocoa Text Layout, or some other printing interface? I'm learning Cocoa, and my first application has a fairly complex printing requirement which I'm now trying to prototype. If printing is part of a Cocoa transition, I might be able to contribute something to this (but probably not for another few weeks -- I have a vacation coming up and need to finish the print portion of my application first).

The right way to distinguish MATLAB from ObjC files would be via `magic-mode-alist'. That said, I don't see how to reliably identify either file type. I guess, ObjC files commonly have some comments /* */ or #include statements. Of course one can hardcode *.m = ObjC, but I'd be interested in distinguishing contents so that Matlab files are actually loaded with Matlab. -- http://aquamacs.org -- Aquamacs: Emacs on Mac OS X http://aquamacs.org/donate -- Could we help you?

For example, Linum works fine with mono-spaced fonts, but fails to align its numbers to the correct width with variable-width fonts (as supported by Emacs 22). More precisely, it seems to assume that a space " " has the width of the widest digit (.e.g, 9). So, the bug is in linum.el. (That said, I don't think Emacs provides a way to calculate the width of a string given a face without actually showing it somewhere in a buffer. The easiest workaround would be to either adjust the width (hack) or to mandate a fixed-width font in the 'linum' face (ugly).) -- http://aquamacs.org -- Aquamacs: Emacs on Mac OS X http://aquamacs.org/donate -- Could we help you?

Select it, enter Command-i. Select Skim as default application for the file type, and hit "Change all". This should do the job. Alternatively, you can always start Skim using Command-Shift- Mouseclick, which works especially well when "pdfsync" is used. -- http://aquamacs.org -- Aquamacs: Emacs on Mac OS X http://aquamacs.org/donate -- Could we help you?

The default setup gives you a pair of parenthesis when you hit M-(. You can see the known pairs with: (mapcar (lambda (pair) (mapcar (lambda (char) (char-to-string char)) pair)) insert-pair-alist) I use this code to add some additional useful pairs: (mapc (lambda (pair) (add-to-list 'insert-pair-alist pair)) '((?? ??)

And that depends on the PATH setting. ... and that is the main problem with MacPorts: it puts its own directory /usr/opt at the very beginning of your PATH.

Say I want to edit two files, day.txt and addr.txt, in two separate frames, and with Aquamacs running, I: 1. Open day.txt by double-clicking an icon. 2. "Dock" (minimize?) the day.txt frame by clicking the usual yellow button. 3. Open addr.txt by double-clicking an icon. Then after step 3, a second frame appears with the buffer day.txt loaded into it, along with the expected frame for addr.txt. If I then: 4. "Dock" the second day.txt frame. 5. Open another file, pay.txt, by double-clicking. Then a third day.txt frame will open. FYI, these problems do not occur with C-x C-f. So is there something I'm doing wrong, or is this a real bug?

Carbon Emacs has (or had) particular hard-wired support inside an ELisp file in its bundle. I remember having read that it had been revised. Right now its site-start.el file contains in my elderly version (Spring, 2008; I'm still on Tiger, free of all Leopard PDF problems): (unless (equal "NO" (mac-get-preference "UnixPathFix" "CarbonEmacsPackage")) ;; path (carbon-emacs-package-add-to-path '( "~/bin" ; one's own "/usr/texbin" ; TeX "/usr/local/bin" "/usr/X11R6/bin" ; xdvi "/usr/local/teTeX/bin/i386-apple-darwin-current" ; i-Installer (intel) "/usr/local/teTeX/bin/powerpc-apple-darwin-current" ; i- Installer (ppc) "/opt/local/bin" ; MacPorts "/sw/bin" ; Fink )) (message "PATH=%s" (getenv "PATH")) (setq carbon-emacs-package-unix-path-fixed t) ) It's a bit clumsy, since teTeX is dead (and I doubt it existed long enough to have an intel version for Mac OS X), xdvi is not in /usr/ X11R6/bin (which is /usr/X11/bin in Leopard), and the CPU hardware can be determined programmatically. These things and failures would not be needed if users would care a bit more about their doings. -- Greetings Pete It's not the valleys in life I dread so much as the dips. ?

Meanwhile elaborate software like FontNuke is developed to clean the font cache every time an Apple PDFKit based viewer displays only trash. Adobe Readers seem to be immune, using their own software. And Adobe Readers also can correctly print! Since Apple's PDFKit is involved in printing too your printer can print the same trash that you see on screen.

I think he just wants to disable cua-delete-selection. To do so, select Options -> Customize Aquamacs -> Specific Option. Enter "cua- delete-selection" and hit RETURN, click on "Value Menu", select "Disabled" and then hit "Save for Future Sessions" and "Finish". -chris From ziemer at indiana.edu Sun Jan 18 16:17:40 2009 From: ziemer at indiana.edu (William Ziemer) Date: Sun Jan 18 17:23:36 2009 Subject: [OS X Emacs] Error when starting up in version 1.6.

I'd recommend looking for the string "fontset-monaco12" in your files? Specifically, in customizations.el or in Preferences.el or in .emacs. If it is in customizations.el, it would be quite interesting for me to see.

I tried turning off autoface mode. It did nothing. Is the ChangeLog accessible from inside Aquamacs, maybe from the Help toolbar menu? I find the Aquamacs Help more annoying than helpful. It opens up some sort of window which appears to display the an info document. Clicking most links (like "Changes-- 1.6") appears to do nothing. In addition, that window is always on top of the window stack. Is there some option for simply viewing info files through a normal Emacs window? Choose another font where?

When you turn off this mode, then all mode-related settings should be removed and undone. That means that the overall "default" face will be applied (unless you made your own settings elsewhere). The overall default face is variable width. That's why you will need to set it to Monaco manually, if you prefer that. If Autoface is on, then all text and derived modes are variable width, but all buffer contents of buffers in other modes are shown in fixed width. > > > David> I just did this, clicked on "Changes-- 1.6" and it brought > me > David> straight to the list of changes. > > Worked this time.

Eventually the > window > does display in courier, but not immediately. I don't know VM, and I don't even know by what means you can select a font specifically for those buffers without Autoface mode unless VM does that somehow. Generally, if `default-frame-alist' and the `default' face are consistent, autoface and the old `aquamacs-styles-mode' are off, then there is no reason why another font would be chosen. Check `face-remapping-alist' as well, perhaps. Autoface has some timers that detect "naughty" (incorrectly implemented) major modes. But if it is turned off (with (autoface-mode 0) for instance) then the timers will be cancelled. If you suspect a bug, then we will need a minimal test case to investigate (without third-party packages like VM if possible). Or perhaps somebody else who knows VM can contribute some ideas. -- http://aquamacs.org -- Aquamacs: Emacs on Mac OS X http://aquamacs.org/donate -- Could we help you?

Open a file with 50+ lines in it. (I've tried text, elisp, Lisp and Scheme files and all exhibit the same problem.) Make a vertical split window with C-x 3. Make sure the 2nd window is displaying the same buffer as the first. Now move around the file with C-p, C-n, C-f, etc.; try holding one of the keys down until keyboard auto-repeat kicks in, for example. On my machine, performance is noticeably sluggish when I do this. Each additional vertical window displaying the same buffer impacts the performance more negatively, When displaying a different buffer in each window, however, the performance seems to be fine. When I create horizontal split windows and display the same buffer in each, I don't notice any performance hit, unless there's also at least one vertical split displaying that same buffer.

Creating a new buffer in erc-mode (e.g., by /join'ing a group) displays the new buffer in a different font briefly before switching to my overridden default face.

This is a action that is easier to do with the mouse than by typing. XEmacs has always had this capability. On my Mac while stretching a window it updates the window title with the current dimensions. On Solaris it floats a little window with the current dimensions over the center of the stretching window. (I imagine the different I observe between Mac and Solaris have more to do with the window manager being used than the OS.) I see that TextEdit doesn't show window dimensions during resize either. Maybe it's a Mac GUI standard thing that users shouldn't care how big their windows are. Still would be real nice to have in my opinion.

Don't think we're getting events before stretching, so it's mostly impossible (that means, you'd need to do C hacking). Why not simply write a command that sets the frame back to 80, and bind it to a key? Sounds more comfortable to me anyways. - D -- http://aquamacs.org -- Aquamacs: Emacs on Mac OS X http://aquamacs.org/donate -- Could we help you?

Yes. The keyboard emulation modes do not remap keys with a C-c or C-x prefix. This would be technically easy (by automatically expanding emulate-mac-keyboard-mode-maps with these prefixes), but conceptually a bit more tricky. Just using Option for Mac keys (i.e. not Meta) without the emulation may be a good option for you. -- http://aquamacs.org -- Aquamacs: Emacs on Mac OS X http://aquamacs.org/donate -- Could we help you?

That is because you are trying to execute the function
ess-version.  There is no such function.  Rather, you
should be looking at the variable ess-version, i.e.
C-h v ess-version

Subject: [OS X Emacs] gnus confuses undo?
Message-ID: <26265D21-9E83-4629-8AEA-FE1B07E94E9A@comcast.net>

Hi.

Using Aquamacs 1.6 (and I don't recall this problem with Aquamacs 1.5):

After running gnus, C-x u (bound to advertised-undo) quits working.  I  
get the following error msg in the *Backtrace* buffer:

Debugger entered--Lisp error: (error "Nothing further to undo")
   signal(error ("Nothing further to undo"))
   ad-Orig-error("Nothing further to undo")
   apply(ad-Orig-error "Nothing further to undo")
   error("Nothing further to undo")
   gnus-undo(1)
   call-interactively(gnus-undo)

I also get the same msg in the *Backtrace* buffer when I enter a  
command of the form C-_ x, where the "x" can be any normal character  
appearing as part of a help command keystroke.  Note that I have
	(define-key global-map "\^_" 'help-command)
in my emacs configuration, mainly because I never gave up this ITS  
Emacs key-binding (among others).  Again, this behavior only happens  
after having run gnus.

Before I binary-search my configuration files, I was wondering whether  
anybody had ever  seen something like this, and (if so) how it got  
fixed.

Thanks.

Maybe buffer-undo-list is bound to t, or recording undo is otherwise  
disabled.

C-_ is bound to undo.  It i not a prefix key.

Subject: [OS X Emacs] Fringe options not saving
Message-ID: 

I successfully used

Options -> Vew -> Fringe -> Empty Line Indicators

but Save Options isn't preserving this setting on restarts. 
Looking at the time stamp in customizations.el, 
I see that the file is being modified.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Message-ID: <83057378-9D32-49E5-B6C3-E7D38510AD19@nf.mpg.de>

Hallo,

I observed the following behaviour in the current Aquamacs release  
(1.6): on my large screen I like to have two or more frames next to  
each other. Each of them usually has a number of tabs. Consider two  
frames ("left" and "right"). If I active frame "left" and do a find- 
file, I expect the resulting buffer to be displayed in frame "left",  
vice versa for a find-file in frame "right". However, if the file I  
select happens to have an associated tab in the other frame, Aquamacs  
will activate the "wrong" frame and bring the corresponding tab to the  
front. This is not necessarily a bug but different from what I expect  
- I would prefer Aquamacs to always use the frame where I execute the  
find-file for displaying the associated buffer (and tab).

Warm regards,
  Stefan

This is tabs related ? I see the same behaviour in the X client  
variant of GNU Emacs 23.0.60 ... or the Cocoa Emacs.app!

It's indeed not a bug, it's a feature.

Herbert, are you implying that you'd also like a switch for this?

If some people are opposed to this behavior, one could easily add a  
customization variable.  This could also affect "switch-to-buffer"  
behavior (e.g., Window menu).  For "switch-to-buffer", we already have  
a special "switch-to-buffer-here".

I'm having trouble with this too.

My Tex Distribution control panel only shows TeXlive 2008,

But my path shows:
echo $PATH
.:/Applications/Emacs.app/Contents/MacOS/bin:/usr/local/teTeX/bin/ 
powerpc-apple-darwin-current:/sw/bin:/sw/sbin:/usr/libexec:/Developer/ 
Tools:/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/ 
usr/X11R6/bin:/usr/texbin:/usr/X11/bin:/opt/local/bin
Onyx:bin arthur$

and which latex shows:

/usr/local/teTeX/bin/powerpc-apple-darwin-current/latex

I'm not sure how to fix this.  My bash profile says:

PATH=$PATH:/opt/local/bin


Where else should I look to fix what is going  on?

I have the impression that now aquamacs emacs uses synctex  
automatically, with no fiddling.  Is that correct?

thanks.

Which Emacs is showing this? Do you see it in Terminal or in some  
Emacsen's *shell* buffer?

There are files in /private/etc named profile or bashrc. Your own  
init file can contain some old stuff. You could try:

	grep teTeX ~/.*

The component /Applications/Emacs.app/Contents/MacOS/bin indicates  
that some Carbon Emacs variant is the culprit. You could try:

	find /Applications/Emacs.app/Contents -type f -name "*.el" -exec  
grep teTeX {} /dev/null \;

or try the find-grep function in GNU Emacs in a similiar way.

but aquamacs would still choose teTeX instead.

SyncTeX works great and there are two options to use it.
1. put \synctec=1 in the preamble of your document
or
2.  open a latex document and go to
LaTeX->customize auctex->browse options->TeX command->Latex Command
and change latex to  latex -synctex=1
You can do the same for Tex Command.

2 does not require 1, recognizing synctex automatically.

Aquamacs chooses what is right from the underlying Unix perspective.

I haven't experimented with it more than for one minute, but the TeX  
distribution panel seems to set /usr/texbin.

If an installer that you've used at some point (or you yourself)  
changes a setting called "the PATH", then something else may well take  
precedence over the /usr/texbin directory.  The PATH determines which  
directories are searched when you type something like "latex" in a  
standard terminal (i.e., a shell).

I don't blame anyone for the assumption that the "TeX Distribution"  
preferences panel sets a system-wide choice, but truth of the matter  
(as you've found out) is that this doesn't work all the time: earlier  
changes to the configuration of the system may override this setting.

It would be nice if the panel checked the correctness of the path and  
warned the user of any misconfiguration.  (CC'ing MacTeX maintainer  
Richard Koch for this reason.)

I have experienced the same trouble at some point messing with LaTeX's  
internal configuration (font woes) until I found out that there were  
remnants of some outdated TeX installation on my system.

SyncTeX showed that our tex configurations were messed up.

It supports them at the level of GNU Emacs, and the Emacs manuals (and  
probably many online resources) will tell you how to enable them.  I  
think it's a frame parameter, if I remember correctly.

This was in shell.

Also nothing,

But it did work to delete all the old tex installations that I found  
in /usr....  It is strange that running the TeX Live
installer doesn't set the paths for you.  I did notice that there is a  
tool  to update TeX installations which  does
show the paths, but I didn't find it until after I had deleted all my  
old tex installations.

All seems to be well now.  I will try to ask for some local unix help  
to see how my path is being set.

Thanks to everyone.

Oh, one more question.  Does a fresh Aquamacs emacs installation use  
Skim as the viewer?
Without something in my .emacs file, it seems to use Preview, but this  
may be due to settings somewhere else.

In Leopard the directory /etc/paths.d contains files that add  
components to PATH ... There are for bash users also the files /etc/ 
profile and /etc/bashrc, while (t)csh users are controlled by /etc/ 
csh.login.


I presume the question of the PDF previewer is a) a system  
customisation and b) one or two or three different customisations in  
Emacs and c) also a customisation in TeX Live for texdoc.

I recommend to setup texdoc as a private copy in ~/bin and use it as  
viewer for a few file types in Emacs and in AUCTeX.

Yes, it uses whatever is associated (in Finder, or to be precise, in  
LaunchServices) with PDF (or PS) files.

It also has a "Jump to Here" command in AUCTeX (Command-Shift-Click)  
that will bring you to Skim if it is installed.
