I've installed Emacs on OSX Snow Leopard using Homebrew (brew install emacs --cocoa). Having brought over my .emacs.d from Ubuntu, everything seems ok except when browsing the directory tree the cursor is hidden, so I can't see which directory is highlighted.

I've tried removing everything non-essential from init.el, but no change. Is this a quirk of my Homebrew install?

Not really a true answer, but I would suggest you use the Cocoa Emacs.app get a build here.

  • Just tried it, same problem. I think it's something to do with the icons used in OSX. Switching to ASCII representation works ok, just a bit clunky. – user523071 Dec 20 '10 at 10:44
  • You can (probably!) customise ECB to use another cursor. – ocodo Dec 20 '10 at 20:21
