A modified version of my Mac OS X Emacs-launching script which doesn't assume a certain amount of time it takes Emacs to start up; this one waits and tries again every second. if [[ ! -z $TERM_PROGRAM ]] { e() { ( emacsclient -n $@ >&/dev/null && osascript -e 'tell application "Emacs" to activate' ) || ( open -a Emacs && until { emacsclient -n $@ >&/dev/null } do sleep 1; done ) } } I wish grep handled Mac line-endings, OTOH, I'm very happy BBEdit's multi-file search does. 6:43:24 PM | reply [] Thanks for the notes, folks, I slept a lot last night and am much better able to work (excepting the bruises :-) today. 4:17:28 PM | reply []
