You could also use M-x compile RET <configure command> RET to create a  
*compilation* buffer in which the use of faces emphasises some text  
output to see more easily what is going on, potentially failing.  
Finally the *compilation* buffer needs to be saved and closed, in  
order to save it from being reused and overwritten by next compilation.


Anyway, the Carbon, NS, and AppKit variants of GNU Emacs have no  
networking capability in a manner like an X client because Apple's  
windowing system is like that from MS not network aware, only local  
like the windowing systems from 30 years ago (on Xerox Star, Pet,  
Lisa, Atari, Amiga, Sun with SunView, Apollo with Presentation  
Manager). TRAMP in Emacs allows to edit files in remote file systems,  
and Apple's Terminal application would allow to launch any Carbon, NS,  
or AppKit variant of GNU Emacs without GUI inside it as

        /Applications/Emacs.app/Contents/MacOS/Emacs -nw
