mg VS build-emacs-macos

If you need quick in and out with emacs feel, consider mg.

EDIT: to partially answer my own question. I see that starting with macOS 10.15 (Catalina), Gnu Emacs was replaced with mg. Catalina was released in October 2019. I don't know anything about Mg but it seems like a neat project.

mg (MicroGNUEmacs) despite the name is not affiliated with GNU and is a fork of MicroEmacs which is a clone of GNU Emacs. Basically it’s a lightweight, portable, emacs-style editor maintained by OpenBSD with a public domain license. https://github.com/troglobit/mg/

If you want a suckless version of emacs, look at mg

Though I don't love Ventura, running Emacs on MacOS has never really been a problem for me. It's also very easy to build Emacs. You can use this shell script if you like: https://github.com/mclear-tools/build-emacs-macos. I also list there a bunch of other build scripts from other users. Just as easy as homebrew really, with a lot more control (e.g. you can build whatever version of Emacs you like, at least back to 22).

You might find this shell script for building emacs useful. https://github.com/mclear-tools/build-emacs-macos

I build emacs myself from the master branch on an M1 and Monterey and don't see this issue. So it might be something either with your config or with that specific build setup.

Here's the build script that I use. It is pretty dead simple. https://github.com/mclear-tools/build-emacs-macos

Hi all -- I've put a repo on github for building emacs on macos. There are several other such scripts available, but I've tried to make mine as simple to understand (I'm not a programmer) as possible (or as possible for me...). It currently works well for me but YMMV. Of course, I realize that there are a million ways to shave this yak, so I'd be curious if anyone has suggestions for improvement (though I'm also looking to keep things as simple as possible). I hope this might be of some use to people.
