@appendix Emacs and Mac OS / GNUstep
Mac OS X with native window system support. On Mac OS X, Emacs can be
built either without window system support, with X11, or with the
Cocoa interface; this section only applies to the Cocoa build. This

For various historical and technical reasons, Emacs uses the term
@samp{Nextstep} internally, instead of ``Cocoa'' or ``Mac OS X''; for
other Mac / GNUstep applications (@pxref{Mac / GNUstep Events}). You
can change these bindings in the usual way (@pxref{Key Bindings}).
-@c FIXME mention ns-alternate-modifier?
+@vindex ns-alternate-modifier
+@vindex ns-right-alternate-modifier
The variable @code{ns-right-alternate-modifier} controls the
behavior of the right @key{alt} and @key{option} keys. These keys
behave like the left-hand keys if the value is @code{left} (the
default). A value of @code{control}, @code{meta}, @code{alt},
@code{super}, or @code{hyper} makes them behave like the corresponding
-modifier keys; a value of @code{none} tells Emacs to ignore them.

@section Mac / GNUstep Customization
-Emacs can be customized in several ways in addition to the standard
-customization buffers and the Options menu.
-
+There are a few customization options that are specific to the
+Nextstep port. For example, they affect things such as the modifier
+keys and the fullscreen behavior. To see all such options, use
+@kbd{M-x customize-group @key{RET} ns @key{RET}}.
@subsection Font and Color Panels
Useful in this context is the listing of all faces obtained by
@kbd{M-x list-faces-display}.
-@subsection Customization options specific to Mac OS / GNUstep

-The following customization options are specific to the Nextstep port.
+@cindex Core Text, on Mac OS X
+In Mac OS X, Emacs uses a Core Text based font backend
+by default. If you prefer the older font style, enter the following
+at the command-line before starting Emacs:
-@table @code
-@item ns-auto-hide-menu-bar
-Non-nil means the menu-bar is hidden by default, but appears if you
-move the mouse pointer over it. (Requires Mac OS X 10.6 or later.)

Emacs can be built and run under GNUstep, but there are still
