Thanks to all who contributed to this months #emacs carnival: curious.port111.com/2025/11/0…
It was a privilege to host and to apparently inspire people to share their “People of emacs”. I think my hunch was right: emacs is very social.
Great #emacs carnival post meanwhiling.com/a-person-…
Acdw rams screwdrivers with such joyful fervour that it infects everybody…With the right person to teach and encourage you, you come to realise the fundamental nature of emacs: emacs is just one enormous screw.
For my second entry in this month’s #emacs Carnival ("The people of Emacs") I’ve updated the acknowledgements section of my emacs config and posted it on #orgsocial. Turns out over 40+ years I’ve borrowed good ideas liberally form people form Donald Knuth to Sacha Chua. Thanks.
There is a new Emacs Carnival blog entry from EMacAdie
Who knew you could join the Austin Emacs Meetup EmacsATX remotely? I guess Texas is big enough for all of us :-)
#emacs #emacscarnival
I had not tried shell inside #emacs for a while. File name completion works now. Time for another look.
You should always second guess yourself if you have to do something outside emacs.
All’s quiet on the western front.
#emacs (text) makes a great trip itinerary builder. Cut and paste text out of reservation PDFs. Loose the cruft (ads). Paste into final document. Less is more.
It’s #emacs bankruptcy time. What’s the current best practice/options for ELPA/MALPA and friends (auto install/update in .emacs). Thanks.
For people using #emacs denote, what happens when you get a large number of files in your denote directory? Do things scale? Issues? Thanks.
Has anybody done #twillo and #emacs integration for SMS<->email gateways?
I’m looking for ways to just leave my phone turned off, and a dedicated number for SMS<->email seems like it would be a Good Thing.
EmacsConf 2024 CFP out, proposals due Friday.
@jtr@taonaw.com you should put something in. I’m toying around with walking through my workflow.
