Just letting you know you might want to update the Homebrew install
instructions.  Homebrew no longer supports command line options,
specifically ‘—with-cocoa’ in this case.

$ brew install emacs
That will still install emacs but without a GUI.

$ brew cask install emacs
That will install emacs with cocoa.

Keep up the great work!
Michael.

Hi, thanks for the report. I take it you’re referring to the
instructions on the website?

Nicolas, are you able to update the website?

Yes, just the website.  That is all that I came across.

Thanks!

Hi Michael,

I'm been behind with some emails, and looking at this now, the website
has already been updated.

Cheers,
Nico
