This is accomplished by providing a user interface (a 'shell') build on the same X Window System that Linux is built on. Note that XQuartz was developed by Apple and, as such, is a supported development platform.
Once you have installed XQuartz on your computer, you can use emacs in a separate window much like you can on a native Linux computer. You can also run OpenGL applications such as the ones we develop in CS 165.
