A lovely set of emacs setting. It depends emacs 24.2 on the Mac OS 10.8.

To grab all the dependencies, either:

git clone git://github.com/arcthur/.emacs.d.git
cd .emacs.d
git submodule init
git submodule update

I use Cocoa Emacs, installed like this:

brew install emacs --cocoa

You can also get the very latest Emacs:

brew install emacs --cocoa --use-git-head --HEAD

I use own yasnippet snippet, update in .emacs.d:

git submodule foreach git pull origin master

These emacsors helped me. You need learned either:

• mbriggs
• magnars
• purcell
