Re: Using Preview with carbon emacs on os x

Daniel et al,

Thanks. On the G5 PowerMac, I used the customize menu and wound up with:

  ("^pdf$" "." "/Applications/Preview.app/Contents/MacOS/Preview  %o")

in my .emacs amongst a whole list of stuff. What would be the proper 
way to make just this setting in my .emacs file?
