This makes setting up a "emacs" terminal command that works with the
self-contained Emacs.app bundle much simpler, as you just need to add
Emacs.app/Conents/MacOS/bin to your PATH.
For example, if you place Emacs.app in /Applications, add this to your
shell setup:
if [ -d "/Applications/Emacs.app/Contents/MacOS/bin" ]; then
export PATH="/Applications/Emacs.app/Contents/MacOS/bin:$PATH"
alias emacs="emacs -nw" # Always launch "emacs" in terminal mode.
fi
The launcher script works by figuring out it's own absolute path on
disk, even if you are using a symlink to the script, it will resolve to
correct real path. This allows it to execute the main
Emacs.app/Contents/MacOS/Emacs executable via the correct path, so it
can correctly pick up its dependencies from within the Emacs.app bundle.
