I figured out how to do this when I was trying to use the Makefile for org-mode. I ended up with the following emacs command-line: EMACS=/Applications/Aquamacs\ Emacs.app/Contents/MacOS/Aquamacs\ Emacs and this line for batchmode compiling. Note that I had to augment the standard emacs command-line -q option with Aquamacs' -Q: BATCH=$(EMACS) -batch -Q -q -eval \ "(progn (add-to-list (quote load-path) (expand-file-name \"./lisp/\")) \ (add-to-list (quote load-path) \"$(lispdir)\"))" HTH, r
