A new blog dedicated to Emacs

This is how Emacs is different from other editors. Like the blog posts show - you start with a need and try to find how the existing Emacs LISP code is written. Next, you try to customize it to your need. Finally, you assign it to a keyboard shortcut.<p>You adapt Emacs to your workflow, just like you adapt Lisp to your problem domain.

Emacs Rocks is pretty sweet too: <a href="http://emacsrocks.com/" rel="nofollow">http://emacsrocks.com/</a>

Many excellent links posted in this thread, thanks to everyone. I also find /r/emacs on reddit interesting.

I never stop discovering features in emacs, for example I found out about embedded calc mode yesterday. I was so impressed by it that I made a screencast demoing its features: <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OPMgj3XWi8Q" rel="nofollow">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OPMgj3XWi8Q</a>

I love emacs, I really do. It is really hard to share customizations with git for emacs in my experience. Right now I'm using prelude + some customizations. I can keep my fork of the prelude repo on my account, and add stuff to /personal . But other than cherry-picks, which would probably get difficult, I really don't know how to contribute back to prelude. pulling the latest version of prelude (or any other preset emacs customization set) requires me to restart emacs, which I normally only do once every other week or so. How do others handle this?

Nice. I have a similar blog <a href="http://justinsboringpage.blogspot.ca" rel="nofollow">http://justinsboringpage.blogspot.ca</a>

Thanks! This is exactly what I was looking for! Short useful snippets which demonstrate extending Emacs with Emacs Lisp.

Quite helpful posts. Try to keep track of them using a RSS reader[1]<p>[1] <a href="http://rssminer.net/a#read/281377?p=1&#38;s=newest" rel="nofollow">http://rssminer.net/a#read/281377?p=1&#38;s=newest</a>

Already learned a few new things, added to my reader. Thank you!

emacs makes my vim brain hurt. kind of like dwarf fortress.

with so many emacs users having their own unique setups, a site dedicated to just emacs setups would be great too

Thanks for creating this blog.
