XEmacs Wrapper is a tool that encompasses the highly-efficient XEmacs editor.
The XEmacs Wrapper is a fantastic tool that acts as a wrapper around the XEmacs editor. To use this software, you will firstly need to install XEmacs through fink, which installs into /sw/bin, or by compiling the source, which installs into /usr/local/bin. Once this is done, the XEmacs wrapper integrates XEmacs into the Finder. This is achieved by providing a double-clickable application that will activate X11 and launch XEmacs. Moreover, this wrapper completely supports drag-and-drop functionality, making it even more convenient to use!
As if this wasn't enough, the XEmacs wrapper comes with a nice bonus feature! The software includes an enlarged and enhanced version of one of the classic XEmacs icons so that the Finder icon looks great at 128x128 resolution. Please note, however, that in order to use this software, you must have already installed XEmacs. This can be done through compiling the source (installs into /usr/local/bin), using fink (installs into /sw/bin), or through DarwinPorts (installs into /opt/local/bin).
The latest release of the XEmacs wrapper has brought a number of changes, including how X11 gets launched and a minor update to how the $DISPLAY gets set. One crucial requirement to use this software is that you must have Apple's X11 already installed.
Overall, the XEmacs Wrapper is an excellent software tool that integrates XEmacs editor into the Finder to make it even easier to use. If you're looking for a simple and efficient way to access and use XEmacs, we highly recommend giving this software a try!
