General

Emacs is a very extensible (and sometimes confusing) editor and part of the GNU Project. GNU Emacs has since 2nd June (version 22.1) been compilable as a native Carbon application [1]; before that there are quite a few ports of GNU Emacs to Carbon/Cocoa, several of which are still ongoing projects.
