[SOLVED][emacs] How can I disable the GUI ?

Hi everyone !

I've just installed Archlinux (and am very very happy with it ^^) but I have a small problem.
I'm used to use emacs rather than vi(m), so I installed it with :

powerpill -S emacs

.

Everything worked, I have enacs, it works no problems on this side. But I don't like emacs' GUI (am I the only one ? ^^) so I'd like to use only the console version. I'm running under KDE 4.2, and when I start Terminal then type :

emacs foo

I have emacs' GUI that launches letting me edition 'foo', but how can I manage to get emacs launching the Terminal (as 'nano' does) ?

Thanks for reading, and I hope you could help me .

Thanks a lot, it works !

I really should have read the man pages more carefully, but I wouldn't have thought it could be in the "Using Emacs with X" section ; actually I wanted not to use it with X ... but neverminds.

Thank you Mr.Elendig, and sorry
