Emacs Editor Default Path Names

The resources listed in Table A-18 are used by the edit server to invoke the GNU Emacs and XEmacs text editors. If a fully qualified path is specified, it is executed.

Table A-18 Default Paths for Emacs Editors

Resource Name 

Default Value 

ESERVE*defaultGnuEmacsPath: 

emacs 

ESERVE*defaultXEmacsPath: 

xemacs 

The values for these resources can either be fully qualified paths or the base name of the command (for instance, myfavoriteemacs).

If a basename is used then it is invoked from the PATH environment variable.
