Daemon mode that plays nice with Mac OS
On Mac OS, if you use Cocoa Emacs' daemon mode and then close all GUI frames, the Emacs app on your dock becomes nonfunctional until you open a new GUI frame using emacsclient on the command line. This is obviously suboptimal. This package makes it so that whenever you close the last GUI frame, a new frame is created and the Emacs app is hidden, thus approximating the behavior of daemon mode while keeping the Emacs dock icon functional. To actually quit instead of hiding Emacs, use CMD+Q (or Alt+Q if you swapped Alt & Command keys).
