[1]PSA: Importing the OS X Path into Emacs: The [2]exec-path-from-shell package is a must-have for the OS X Emacs user. Before I found it, I could never get the search path for Emacs configured correctly. Once I installed it, all those problems disappeared and I haven't thought about them since. Really; if you're using Emacs on a Mac, you need this. (Via [3]Emacs - Irreal) Here's the recipe from my config: (when (memq window-system '(mac ns)) (use-package exec-path-from-shell :ensure t :config (exec-path-from-shell-initialize) ) ) Since I use the same config on multiple OSes the opening line makes sure it only installs on a OS X/macOS host. __________________________________________________________________ My original entry is here: [4]PSA: Importing the OS X Path into Emacs.
