Anybody know when the software repositories will get emacs24. I just tried compiling it and it is a nightmare if you want X support. I compiled it on my no GUI machine just fine. I was just wondering.

Probably not until the next release of Trisquel. I would estimate that as coming out around October 2014. Trisquel is only releasing off the next LTS releases from Ubuntu and the next LTS ubuntu release is expected in April 2014. It usually takes ~6 months for the trisquel release.

Emacs 24 is in the quantal release of Ubuntu (12.10) so it should be in the next Trisquel release unless someone backports it.
