Hi, I've just made a few small changes so that on Mac OS X, 1. the Emacs application will now be represented by a gnu icon instead of by the generic application icon, and 2. files of any type can be dragged-and-dropped onto the Emacs application to open them. The Apple Event handlers have always been there and worked in the classic version. I just didn't properly initialize them on the Mac OS X version. Thanks are due to Steven Tamm for supplying the code for that. The gnu icon is from http://www.gnu.org/graphics/reiss-head.jpg with a drop shadow added and converted to icns file format. For those who like the icon in the classic version better, a larger, color version is available at http://members.shaw.ca/akochoi/emacs/Emacs.icns To use it, simply replace the file with the same name in mac/Emacs.app/Contents/Resources/ by this one. This is the icon I use :-). If you are updating from CVS, to make drag-and-drop work, you will probably need to delete the files ~/Library/Preferences/LS* and ~/Library/Preferences/.LS* and restart.
