add the following to ~/Library/Preferences/Aquamacs Emacs/Preferences.

git clone git:///walter/aquamacs-emacs-starter-kit.git.

cd ~/Library/Preferences/Aquamacs Emacs/.

yasnippet-bundle - snippet functionality ala textmate, including standard distribution of snippets.

w3 - lynx-like built in browser for emacs.

rinari - enhancements to emacs aimed at Ruby on Rails developers.

Yet, it comes with all the ergonomics and extensibility youve come to expect from GNU Emacs. Aquamacs integrates with the Mac and offers the same comforts that any application on the Mac provides.

paredit - parenthesis matching, nice addition for lisp editing Aquamacs is a user-friendly build of the powerful Emacs text editor.

magit - enhancements for use of git with emacs, see.

gist - wrapper for gist API to be integrated with emacs.

Adjusting PATH for emacs is now longer necessary as we now pick up the environment from ~/.zshrc (which inturn loads ~/.zshenv for our PATH, etc.).ДЄlso note that rbenv along with ruby-build is now assumed for managing ruby versions. I've switched from bash shell to zsh with oh-my-zsh (see adjust-shell.el). However, I do occasionally include useful features (snippets, etc.) that originated from Textmate. Feel free to fork and add them to your fork. Check out topfunky's for lots of that stuff. I've also never been a Textmate user, so I don't include textmate mode or other the textmate keybindings that may smooth the transition for those that are coming form Textmate.

new windows (frames) should be used sparingly ala traditional emacs, in contrast to Aquamacs defaults.

this starter kit is aimed at Ruby, Ruby on Rails, Xcode, and iPhone development.

use ~/Library/Preferences/Aquamacs Emacs/aquamacs-emacs-starter-kit/ for Aquamacs Emacs Starter Kit specific code.

use vendor directory for third party code that isn't available any other way.

use elpa package management to acquire third party extensions to emacs.

where possible use configuration (customization.el and Preferences.el) of Aquamacs to achieve desired result.

Aquamacs ido how to#

Take a peek into /Applications/Aquamacs.app/Contents/Resources/lisp/ for details (for how to view this via the Finder, see here). This is a new related project, not a fork, and thus code conventions may not be interchangable.ДЄquamacs includes a number of 'sensible defaults' in addition to what emacs includes. It also slims down the starter kit a lot since Aquamacs already includes many of the same concepts. The Aquamacs Emacs Starter Kit suits the philosophy of Aquamacs to be more Mac like in directory structure. Since this starter kit is aimed at Aquamacs it has a very different project layout than Phil Hagelberg's emacs-starter-kit.

Inspired by Phil Hagelberg's emacs-starter-kit and fork customizations by Geoffrey Grosenbach (topfunky), but slimmed down for use with the already heavily customized Aquamacs Mac OS X version of emacs.
