Re: How to compile Emacs on Mac OS X with extra libs from MacPorts

[Mike Mattie]

Here is my solution. ymmv.

It assumes that emacs cvs/tarball is in a subdir "emacs".

As far as getting Emacs to pick up the X11 headers I have never been able to 
build
against a pure Apple X11. To get all the right headers I usually install gtk
via macports, which fails, but pulls just about all the X headers in the 
process.

It's ugly, but it can run when I go to bed, and in the morning building Emacs
actually works.

I hope it helps a bit.
