Because people asked: my current emacs configuration is at https://github.com/joodie/emacs-config Note that it will not work as is, as it depends on my local file tree and specific installs from marmalade. So it’s mostly useful as a raw bucket of … Continue reading…

clojure-refactoring, the Emacs/SLIME based toolkit for doing refactoring wasn’t getting enough love and attention, so I fixed a few things. Tom Crayford unfortunately doesn’t have the time to work on it any further so I’m taking over as the maintainer. … Continue reading…

This is part of the series on SLIME functions. See the introduction for information on what SLIME is. Another very short post. Now what is the name of that function again? Which namespace contains that variable? Call slime-apropos; Default key-binding: … Continue reading…

By far the oldest board in this series. Production of these things started in 1985 and slightly modified versions are still being build by Unicomp (the Customizers are the closest to the standard IBM Model M, but always make sure … Continue reading…

When you’re typing as much as I do, sooner or later you realize that having a good keyboard is important. Years ago I was having issues with wrist-pain and switching keyboards was – for me – a very effective way … Continue reading…

This is part of the series on SLIME functions. See the introduction for information on what SLIME is. Just a short post today. The slime-who-calls function (default binding “C-c C-w c”) lists every function that calls the given function (default … Continue reading…

New code! As I noted in yesterday’s post, slime-complete-symbol normally doesn’t complete locally bound “variables” (that is, function arguments and let bindings). I’ve created a SLIME extension that does a pretty rough scan of the current top-level form and adds … Continue reading…

This is part of the series on SLIME functions. See the introduction for information on what SLIME is. Today I want to address auto-completion. There are many different Emacs extensions for doing completions, but the basic functionality in SLIME is … Continue reading…

This is part of the series on SLIME functions. See the introduction for information on what SLIME is. SLIME has a bunch of different functions that compile code from a file buffer into the running Lisp process. I’ll list a … Continue reading…

I’m starting a series of posts highlighting useful functions in Emacs/SLIME. The idea is to take one function (or a set of related functions) per post. This post is mostly here for reference in future episodes and will explain what … Continue reading…

The standard instructions for swank-clojure (the clojure backend to SLIME) imply you always use the same binary and/or classpath for starting your clojure code. The problem with that is that for different projects you generally want to specify at least … Continue reading…

Flash finally raised my curiousity by adding fully programmable audio in Flash player 10. This means you can read the currently playing audio stream to provide reasonably accurate VU meters etc, but more interesting, it means you can write your … Continue reading…

I just updated emacs-rails so that feedback on the currently running test is put in the global modeline. This means you get that feedback in all buffers, so you can work on something else while your tests are running, and … Continue reading…

One of the projects I’m working on is in Ruby on Rails, and I’m using emacs-rails (with some small tweaks) as the development environment. Emacs rails works fine, except for one thing: the navigation menus (x-popup-menus) are awkward when you … Continue reading…

For a mod_perl project I’m working on I wanted a way to track the apache error log and jump to the source of the errors from emacs. Fortunately, emacs’ (compile) command makes this very easy:

;; restarts apache and track … Continue reading…

My current favorite Emacs*font to work with the new XFT backend is Inconsolata. I’ve tried a few others, but this font is just very clear, not too fat and not too skinny, and it has a slashed zero, as a … Continue reading…
