David,

Good point, but mostly, it’s because I don’t have replace-string bound to a key binding. M-% is ingrained in my typical workflow.

Just found your blog and it’s great. Only problem: How am I going to remember these tips when I need them?

Anyway: Run M-% (query-replace) and substitute C-q C-m with nothing. ... Afterwards hit the exclamation point (!) to tell query-replace to replace all matches with no questions.

Why not M-x replace-string and then no (!)?

Comment on Declaring .emacs Bankruptcy by .emacs publishing | Perpetually Curious

[...] Groovy The whole config is split into individual lisp files that are specific to a language or cross cutting feature. The inspiration for doing this work came from M-x all-things-emacs. [...]

Comment on Maximize on Startup, Part 2 by Michael Brand

Hi rohan nicholls,
Are you looking for something like the function count-lines-page which tells the number of lines the current buffer has? If yes it should be easy to include a return of the total.

Comment on Quick Tip: Spaces instead of Tabs by Gary Johnson

Gary Johnson — Sun, 13 Jun 2010 20:29:29 +0000

@L. Guruprasad

(setq tab-width 4) is buffer local even when placed in your .emacs file. That means the .emacs file uses a tab-width of 4, but everything else remains at 8. To set this globally, press C-h-v tab-width, and then customize the variable via the link in the Help window.

I like the approach you took with this topic. It isn’t typical that you find a subject so concise and informative.

Comment on Emacs Key Bindings in Windows by Eric

Eric — Tue, 25 May 2010 14:50:04 +0000

I love XKeyEmacs so so much. I can’t even believe it. This is an absolutely brilliant application. It may even keep me from throwing my windows box out the window….although maybe that would have been a good thing.

Comment on Copying Lines, not killing by Michael Lockhart

Michael Lockhart — Fri, 14 May 2010 11:58:12 +0000

oh duh! check this out: http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/CopyingWholeLines

I found it in my .emacs when I went to add above.

(defun mjl-copy-line (arg)
“Copy lines (as many as prefix argument) in the kill ring
http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/CopyingWholeLines”;
(interactive “p”)
(kill-ring-save (line-beginning-position)
(line-beginning-position (+ 1 arg)))
(message “%d line%s copied” arg (if (= 1 arg) “” “s”)))

I copyied this to my X clipboard thus: C-u 7 M-k — three key presses (5 if you count the modifier keys)

Based on Greg’s decision to go with M-w, and vinz wish, here’s my attempt:

(defun whatever()
“copy the line that point is on “
(interactive “P”)
(save-excursion
(move-beginning-of-line)
(next-line-mark)
(copy-region-as-kill-nomark)))

Basically this is C-o C-n M-w, wraped in a save-excursion so that your cursor / mark are unaffected. I too would bind this to M-k

Comment on YASnippet Updated – Supports Nested Placeholders and More by Sporter

Sporter — Sun, 09 May 2010 18:23:45 +0000

[...] I have just updated my Shoulda snippets for the Emacs YASnippets templating package. Shoulda is a ruby-based testing framework that consists of test macros, assertions, and helpers added on to the Test::Unit ruby framework. The snippets are based, and in many cases copied from the TextMate Shoulda snippet bundle, and modified where needed to work with the YASnippets package. New features in the recently released 0.6beta of YASnippet allow support for more of the TextMate-based snippets. The new YASnippet functionality is discussed in more detail in a post I did on Emacs Blog. [...]

Comment on Emacs, JDEE, Ant, and the Eclipse Java Compiler by Rob Christie

Angela,

Thanks for the update. I haven’t been doing any Java development in the past two years, but I assume some of the formatting from the eclipse compiler has changed.

Nice post, however the regexp didn’t work for me at least in combination with ant with the -e (for emacs output flag). In this case there is a \n more in the regexp (the second one).
