  • Behind the scenes: Livin’ la Vida Emacs


    sacha chua :: enterprise 2.0 consultant, storyteller, geekAuthority Authority: 134
    In October 2006, I gave a short presentation on Livin’ la Vida Emacs (or the Emacs editor as a way of life). It was well-received—in fact, so well-received that folks in the audience anticipated my punchlines and I ended up shifting parts of my talk around. People said: Last, and certainly not least was ...

  • AJAX Emacs. If this doesnt excite you, nothing will.


    Download SquadAuthority Authority: 745
    Filed under: Productivity , Open Source If you dont know what Emacs is, this is probably the least exciting news youll read all week. In fact, if youre not an Emacs user, just skip this article. Also, if youre a hardened-and-bearded Vi user, move along -- but whatre the chances of one of the 10 remaining Vi ...

  • Mac OS X from a GNU/Linux User


    Nethazard.netAuthority Authority: 104
    The Mac OS X slogan I’ve heard from several mac fanboys is “it just works”. Well, being a GNU/Linux user for quite some time and coming to OS X, that is not the case for me. There’s a lot of little things that “just don’t work” on my particular usage. Recently I’ve been given a 17″ Macbook Pro for ...

  • Emacs vs. Vim


    Floating SunAuthority Authority: 100
    This is a follow up on my previous post . This comparison is necessarily biased as a consequence of my evaluation methodology, which was as follows. For the features/functions that I most commonly use in Vim , I tried to identify the equivalent operations in Emacs. I’m certain that an Emacs user doing a similar ...

  • Turn Emacs into an IDE


    What You're Doing Is Rather DesperateAuthority Authority: 104
    I fired up NetBeans at work today, tried to open a Rails project and – inexplicably, it crashed. All is well at home, so I’m blaming work machine setup issues as-yet unknown (but I suspect, involving the letters “ATI”). It got me thinking that, as much as I like NetBeans, it is still just a memory-eating, ...

  • Automating tedious wiki editing tasks with Emacs and w3m


    sacha chua :: enterprise 2.0 consultant, storyteller, geekAuthority Authority: 134
    I needed to update many of the links in our wiki because a team member left, so I had to reupload all of her files to a shared service and change all the URLs to point to the new files. Unfortunately, the file service didn’t send me the former URLs of the files, so that was going to be a manual process. Our wiki had ...

  • Emacs fiddling: show the menu-bar when the mouse is near the top of the frame


    David's Computer Stuff Journal :Authority Authority: 104
    My wife is having dinner with the baby at her parents, so I took a moment to do a bit of pure, pointless, fun hacking after reading a discussion of which emacs gui features to turn off on a site I frequent. I turn off the tool bar and the scroll bar to get as much screen real estate as possible, but leave the menu ...

  • Linux: Minimizing Memory Usage


    JJinuxLandAuthority Authority: 123
    Its still fashionable in certain Linux circles these days to pick a leaner distro in order to minimize resource utilization. Advocates of Arch Linux and Gentoo like to point out that Ubuntu is a bit heavy on RAM usage. As a Linux old timer, Im sympathetic to the yearnings for a leaner, meaner past. Even Linus ...

  • Play Tetris in Emacs!


    Lightweight LinuxAuthority Authority: 104
    One finds every now and then something surprising in any installed Linux system. For several years I have known that with Emacs one can do just about everything one really needs to do with a computer. Well, at least if you dont want to edit video clips or compose music with it. Today I realized that it is possible ...

  • Reconsidering Vim


    Floating SunAuthority Authority: 100
    NOTE: This post is not about the editor war — so please don’t try to start one either. First, some background. Lets just say that I lost my editor virginity to Vim . It was a brief, but violent introduction — the modal editing was too unfamiliar, the learning curve too steep. After dabbling with a few other ...

  • Thinking about Planner/EmacsWiki versus Wordpress


    sacha chua :: enterprise 2.0 consultant, storyteller, geekAuthority Authority: 134
    Was it really only less than two years ago that I shifted from my venerable Planner-based wiki/blog to my Wordpress-powered one after experimenting with syndicating my entries into Wordpress? I miss writing in wiki markup on Emacs and knowing that publishing would Just Work. I miss being able to dynamically ...

  • Conkeror is a keyboard-oriented, highly-customizable, highly


    Linux/Unix News - motd.ambians.comAuthority Authority: 158
    Conkeror is a Web browser with an Emacs-style look, feel and configuration. It uses Firefoxs HTML rendering engine and works with most Firefox extensions, but it provides a keyboard-driven interface and makes excellent use of screen space. Its a fitting Web browser for Netbooks with their imprecise touchpads and small ...
