Re: Mac OS X load path

[Dmitrijs Ledkovs]

I've read all possible solutions.

And it doesn't work.

My question is now is how do I uninstall both emacs (apple's and  
compiled) from my system. And then do a clean install so that I will  
now for sure where what is and suppose to go to and load from.

Ideal of having Emacs in Application Support is appealing to me,  
because I want to keep things structured OS X style =D.

With regards,

Dmitrijs.

Because you've overwritten Apple's GNU Emacs 21.2 and you've installed  
some 22.1 version.

I advertise /Library/Application\ Support/Emacs, which somehow has to  
do with how Mac OS X handles extras, i.e. "Application Support" via -- 
enable-locallisppath=/Library/Application\ Support/Emacs at  
configuration time. If you don't want to use this extra directory,  
then check the value of load-path. Could be your Emacsen share one  
directory like /usr/local/share/emacs/site-lisp.

To most people solutions mean finding the answers. But to chemists  
solutions
are things that are still all mixed up.
