  • The xwidget branch origin story

    Nov 14, 2015 emacs xwidgets

    There are some misconceptions about the Emacs Xwidget branch, and some people are just scratching their heads wondering what the branch is for. For me it is easier to answer these questions by regaling you with the very interesting origin story of the Xwidget branch! I like making music and art in my spare time. I …

  • Emacs gamification

    Aug 2, 2015 emacs

    zen-reward-mode is a simple gamification of emacs. The idea of gamification is explained at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gamification The rules of the game are: Typing a character in a buffer gives you one zen reward point, ZRP for short. Closing an org mode TODO item gives you 1000 ZRP! Doing something silly like …

  • Only list Gnus groups with unread messages

    Jul 19, 2015 emacs gnus

    The Emacs news-reader Gnus, is the interface I use to read most of my feeds. Since I use it for mail, news, rss and more, theres a lot of groups in my Gnus. (Okay, if you don't know Gnus this doesnt make much sense.) Only list Gnus groups with unread messages because I have so many marks and so many groups now. you …

  • eshell at server directory

    Jul 19, 2015 emacs

  • dtach emacs

    May 3, 2015 emacs

    I like using emacs as a launcher for other programs. However, it's inconvenient when Emacs crashes for some reason, and all your programs die as well. So, here is an example how to use dtach to avoid having the program die, and be recovered by emacs next time around. 1(defun bankid () 2 (interactive) 3 ;;important! …

  • systemctl eshell

    Oct 18, 2014 emacs

    systemctl is nice, but has some tedious aspects if you run your shells in emacs, as i do. you can do export PAGER= this is nice, since emacs is a much better pager than more or less. also, by default systemctl elipsifies output, which i prefer emacs to handle. -l helps, but how do i avoid always typing it? ive been …

  • Emacs hl-line mode

    Oct 18, 2014 emacs

    I find it useful to have the line where the cursor is highlighted for certain Emacs modes. Its quite easy: 1(require 'hl-line) 2 3(add-hook 'package-menu-mode-hook 'hl-line-mode) 4(add-hook 'gnus-group-mode-hook 'hl-line-mode) 5(add-hook 'gnus-summary-mode-hook 'hl-line-mode) 6(add-hook …

  • Speedreading with Emacs and Spray, a Spritz implementation

    Aug 5, 2014 emacs

    I have experimented with speedreading on and of for many years. This time I got interested in a new speed read method called Spritz. There are many demonstrations of this system on the web if you are interested to see it in action. There are other speed read systems for Emacs, and now there is also Spray, a Spritz …

  • Starting Emacs on boot

    Dec 30, 2013 emacs

    I use Emacs all the time. My most important Emacs runs in my own server, which I access remotely either through a tty terminal, or a graphical session. The terminal can either be plain ssh, or mosh. The graphical session is x2go at the moment. Since I always want an Emacs running, and I want to access the same emacs …

  • Something I thought about on the beach but now forgot

    Dec 20, 2013 emacs transhumanism

    So, I had the bestest ever thought today at the beach. How can you not have beatiful thoughts when the weather is great, the sea is salty, and the shade soothing? Now the thought is gone though, and no effort of mine brings it back. Normally I capture my thoughts in Emacs Org mode, and normally I can access my Emacs …
