 the check for {{{Emacs}}}, I got a build failure.  Something like "no rule
 to build info-look.elc".  I think the problem is the {{{INFO_LOOK_ELC
 =info-look.elc}}} immediately above the binary name check.  For Emacs.app
 we need to make sure that {{{INFO_LOOK_ELC}}} is cleared, as it is in the
 {{{"$vnum" -ge 2030}}} check.  This is probably another bug with the
 configure script, actually. If I'm interpreting it correctly, this

 {{{INFO_LOOK_ELC}}} is not "", then {{{info-look.el}}} exists.

 Oh, thanks for this extra diagnosis. I forgot to run "make" when testing
 earlier (outside of macports, I didn't really want random files ending up
 inside Emacs.app :).

 {{{emacs}}} variant yesterday.  But I use Emacs every day and occasionally
 have to edit gnuplot scripts, so I intend to start using it!

 I would be curious to get some feedback. I have no idea what those lisp
 scripts do.
