Any help would be much appreciated.


Mac OS X applications are not created in the same way as in FreeBSD or any other UNIX. No shell environment is used in this process, so no shell environments are copied into in the application's process environment. Nevertheless you have more than two ways to solve your problem:

• use ~/.MacOSX/environment.plist, as recommended earlier (also lookup the defaults command, as in for example: 'export PATH=$ (defaults read "${HOME}/.MacOSX/environment" PATH))' • launch Carbon and other Emacsen as '"/Applications/Carbon Emacs.app/Contents/MacOS/Emacs" &' from the shell • use something like '(setenv "INFOPATH" (concat "/Applications/ Aquamacs Emacs.app/Contents/Resources/site-lisp/edit-modes/info" ":" (getenv "INFOPATH")))' in your user init file
