 sending AppleScript commands to other applications from Emacs.

 Read the Mac OS section of the on-line help to find out about how to
 use Emacs on the Mac.
 
 A number of things do not work yet:
 
-+ Emacs does not respond correctly to C-g under certain circumstances.  
-  Sending the Emacs process a SIGINT externally will cause it 
-  to interrupt.  This is due to the architecture of OSX's 
-  Window Manager.
-
-+ Support for certain image types (such as XPM) is not as extensive as 
-  on other plaforms. 
++ Support for PostScript image type is not available.
 
 + Incorporate Apple's wrappers to be able to create a universal 
   binary that unexecs on first run for the given architecture.
