emacs 21.1

There is now a version of emacs 21.1 in fink, with an aqua interface
(fink install emacs-alpha). You just start it by double clicking the
icon in the Applications folder, it then fills the Aqua menubar
with the usual emacs menus, and it pops up the emacs startup
screen with the usual Aqua buttons and bars. It is an alpha, but
it seems to work fine. X11 is not needed.

Installing ESS in this emacs will give you yet another way to use R
in Mac OS X (without graphics, I guess).

If someone tries this and it works (or doesn't), PLEASE let me know!

I am getting older, but I can still take  a hint.  It works, as far as I 
can see
now. Not surprisingly, because it's just a Cocoa wrapper around the
Darwin Emacs, I think.
