+ 
+ This directory contains the files needed to build Emacs on the Mac OS
+ 8/9 and Mac OS X.  Many of the major features of the Unix version are
+ supported: multiple frames, colors, scroll bars, menu bars, use of the
+ mouse, fontsets, international characters, input methods, and coding
+ systems.
+ 
+ Mac OS specific support includes document drag-and-drop in the Finder,
+ transfer of text to and from other applications via the clipboard, and
+ sending AppleScript commands to other applications from Emacs.
+ 
+ The following are not supported on Mac OS 8/9 : unexec (dump-emacs),
+ asynchronous subprocesses (start-process), and networking
+ (open-network-stream).  These features work fine on Mac OS X.
+ 
+ There is basic support for synchronous subprocesses (call-process) on
+ Mac OS 8/9 although Unix commands that are used will need to be
+ ported.
+ 
+ Metrowerks CodeWarrior Pro 6 or MPW-GM (August 2001) can be used to
+ build Emacs on the Mac OS 8/9.  On Mac OS X, Emacs can be built using
+ the Developer Tools.  See the INSTALL file in this directory for
+ instructions on building Emacs.
+ 
+ Binary distributions will be available in
+ 
+   ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/mac/emacs/
+ 
+ Read the Mac OS section of the on-line help to find out about how to
+ use Emacs on the Mac.
+ 
+ A number of things do not work yet:
+ 
+ + Emacs does not respond correctly to C-g under certain circumstances.  
+   Sending the Emacs process a SIGINT externally will cause it 
+   to interrupt.  This is due to the architecture of OSX's 
+   Window Manager.
+ 
+ + Support for certain image types (such as XPM) is not as extensive as 
+   on other plaforms. 
+ 
+ If your Mac is connected to the Internet, report bugs by typing `M-x
+ report-emacs-bug' or by choosing the entry `Send Bug Report...'  in
+ the `Help' menu.  This will send the bug report to the address
+ address@hidden
