Since you are so knowledgeable about apple, perhaps you can explain why my
symlink broke on Monterey.
I have /usr/local/bin in my path, and I have a symlink from
/usr/local/bin/emacs_bin to
/Applications/Emacs.app/Contents/MacOS/Emacs
If I type
/Applications/Emacs.app/Contents/MacOS/Emacs
at the command line, it runs, however if I type
/usr/local/bin/emacs_bin
I get a little pop-up that says:
This application will not run on your computer. Sorry!
The symlink worked for many years, through many generations of MacOS, I don't
understand why it broke.
