Re: Success installing emacs-w3m with Aquamacs?

hi,

i am not sure if this is the answer you're looking for, but if you  
can alias the name 'emacs' to aquamacs emacs by putting the following  
line in your .bashrc file


alias emacs='open -a /Applications/Aquamacs\ Emacs.app'


then it will call aquamacs instead of emacs.  i am not sure if this  
will solve your problem, but it might be worth a try.  hopefully  
someone else can offer you a better answer here.
