Built-in table editor - The Org Manual

2013-03-22T09:37:00.001-07:00

Built-in table editor - The Org Manual: "C-c ^ (org-table-sort-lines)
Sort the table lines in the region. The position of point indicates the column to be used for sorting, and the range of lines is the range between the nearest horizontal separator lines, or the entire table. If point is before the first column, you will be prompted for the sorting column. If there is an active region, the mark specifies the first line and the sorting column, while point should be in the last line to be included into the sorting. The command prompts for the sorting type (alphabetically, numerically, or by time). When called with a prefix argument, alphabetic sorting will be case-sensitive.

Queen

Queen: "A platform for running scripts on many browsers
Let's say you want to play a game where you write down a number and others try to guess it. You gather some friends and tell them to start giving numbers at you. Your friends keep giving you random numbers until one of them gets it right.

Now imagine your friends are browsers, and the game is a script which tells browsers how to play, and waits for the right number to be guessed. This makes you the Queen Server. The Queen Servers allows you to perform distributed tasks on many browsers -- a platform for running scripts on many browsers.

Let's run the example:"

jtnimoy - Tron Legacy (2010)

jtnimoy - Tron Legacy (2010): "he was supposed to kill a process. So we went with posix kill and also had him pipe ps into grep. I also ended up using emacs eshell to make the terminal more l33t. The team was delighted to see my emacs performance -- splitting the editor into nested panes and running different modes. I was tickled that I got emacs into a block buster movie. I actually do use emacs irl, and although I do not subscribe to alt.religion.emacs, I think that's all incredibly relevant to the world of Tron."

org mode

Org-mode is a new Emacs mode developed by Carsten Dominik. It is designed for taking notes, outlining, writing, project planning, maintaining to-do lists, time management and even publishing to Web sites?all this using only Emacs and plain text.

Plain text? Why would anyone want to use plain text for doing all of the above? Plain text offers several advantages. You are not locked in to a file format or an operating system. You can edit plain-text files using any available text editor. It is easy to copy and paste plain text from and into e-mail messages. You can track changes in your document using a version control system, such as CVS or Subversion. When I am writing, I find that plain text offers one more advantage?it enables me to think better and focus on my ideas, without the distractions of a word processor.

js2-mode

2010-03-04T09:48:00.001-08:00

I recently needed a mode to indent .json files and happened upon the excellent js2-mode by Steve Yegge. It indents like a charm.

One issue I had on emacs23 was that it didn't want to byte-compile, but I found this good solution, run it in batch mode to compile.


emacs --batch --eval '(byte-compile-file "js2-20080616a.el")'

In other news, I made a couple jaws drop yesterday when I showed them my use of emacs keyboard macros. They're simple, but so powerful.

One thing I do all the time with Emacs keyboard macros is to have multiple buffers on the screen, and then move between them, killing and yanking between them. One common workflow I use it to "ls -1 > la.sh" into a file and then use that as a buffer to create commands and munge files. Dired mode with keyboard macros and another buffer also rocks.
