Hi Gregg,

The font problem had been fixed quite a while ago after the release of
the patch for Emacs 21.1.  The Mac OS X code has been merged into the
main CVS tree so the latest version of the code can be obtained from
Emacs CVS repository, which includes this bug fix.  The current
version is 21.3.50.  For information on how to use the CVS, see:

  http://savannah.gnu.org/cvs/?group=emacs

This version contains a GNU head icon.  If you 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.

I have received various suggestions to name the program in the past.
But I don't think I should nor could give it a new name: the program
is simply just `Emacs'.  Think of it as having earned the right to
carry that name :-).

Andrew.
