How can I turn off the prompt when I try to save the file in Emacs?
I mean every time I do C-x s, emacs always ask "Save file xxx?"
How can I disable this prompt?
I have some processes that run from functions, i.e.:
M-x run-proc1
M-x run-proc2
I would like to know what command to issue from the command line to run emacs with run-proc1 running in the upper window and run-proc2 running in the lower window.
Thanks!
In Emacs, if I split the frame (C-x 2), each window has a status bar. Historically, I could drag the status bar to resize them.
Unfortunately, with Emacs these days and just a few modes (for version control, line/col number, abbrevs, my programming language, etc.), pretty much the entire bar has remapped mouse-1 to something other than letting me…
Is there a way to make ibuffer-visit-buffer behave like ido-switch-to-buffer (with raise-frame option)? If there is a window/frame containing the buffer I'd like emacs to take me there rather than opening the same buffer in the current window. I guess switch-to-buffer is remapped to ido-switch-to-buffer when ido-mode is turned on, so would doing…
I am trying to use Emacs for developing in Lua, and installed a Lua mode for that. After doing this I was unhappy about the background and changed it by applying the face of my text mode (which I configred by myself). It worked, but now the modified settings for Lua mode are being applied with the significant delay (3-5 sec) after opening a Lua…
If I have an Emacs frame on each of my displays, how can I easily navigate buffers between the two displays? I typically use shift + arrows to jump to the direction of the buffer I'm looking for, but with two frames, it won't jump.
Is there a trick to this? Or do I need to give the other Emacs frame focus first (which is a step I would like…
I want to know, what text do I have to input in the .emacs file so that it uses a especific font (like the clean 5x8) on the new frames, such as with the speedbar. I can modify the speedbar font size and type by using SHIFT-LeftClick but I want it to stay by default.
Hello,
I'm trying to get my windows based emacs to handle mails. Is there any emacs based mail reader that would run on windows? By running, I mean fetch from imap, show and reply to mails without external applications.
I've heard many good things about Wanderlust but the webpage suggests it is not supported.
Any suggestions? Thanks!
I spend alot of my time in Emacs, and move between Windows, Linux, and Mac OS at least once a day since these are the machines my company has available to use. I spend alot of time in gmail using gmail folders too, and would like to find a cross platform email client for emacs which can support gmail too.
Note: I would like to find a client…
Hey
I been bugging with this problem for some hours now. And I couldn't find the answer on google so I try it here.
The problem is that when I run emacs in cygwin in -nw mode characters like åäö doesn't come out normally. However it is perfectly normal when I type those character in mintty terminal. The answer that I found on google is that…
On windows and ubuntu I just download the latest drops of emacs straight from the gun/fsf site, but they don't have Mac binaries there.
I have a decent version that came with Snow Leopard, but just running in the bash terminal. Is there a version that runs in a standalone window and is more Mac friendly?
I did try using ports, and…
When I use the emacs shell mode or in gdb, when I type double tab, the emacs pop up a new window which always cover an existed window. While in terminal, when I type double tab, to complete a directory, the terminal just print all the candidates in the same window. Can I make the emacs not to pop up a new window when I use this…
hi.
I would like to use emacs as a development environment for arduino programming.
If you use emacs to program arduino, can you share some tips or links which you find useful.
Is there official (or de facto) emacs mode?
Also, am I going to miss something which is in arduino IDE if I use emacs exclusively?
thank you .
Hello emacs gurus,
I'm out of ideas here - my emacs crashes when popup dialog is opened. The x-popup-dialog function is probably to blame but I found no workaround to this. My Emacs version is 23.1.1 . Unfortunately some functionality of emacs calls this (e.x. customize asks whether it should save the changes) which causes the…
Working with Python in Emacs if I want to add a try/catch to a block of code, I often find that I am having to indent the whole block, line by line. In Emacs, how do you indent the whole block at once.
I am not an experienced Emacs user, but just find it is the best tool for working through ssh. I am using Emacs on the…
I am new to emacs and I am playing around with the .emacs file. How can I get it to reload all my definitions that I have updated in.emacs without restarting emacs?
I guess it is not the right place to ask here for enocean specific details, but maybe I am doing something wrong by using serial connections and you can help me no matter if there is knowledge about this technology or not.
I have a problem to communicate with the RCM152 Module.

Hello,
I'm using Emacs and M-x term for a terminal. Since my typical workflow looks like this:
edit some code
C-x C-o to the terminal buffer (or C-x b term[Enter] or something)
press Up key to use the last command
press Enter to run it
C-x C-o to go back
I want to bind all of these (except the first step...…
I have downloaded zenburn.el that is a color-scheme for Emacs, but I don´t know how I can apply it to emacs. I am a beginner in emacs.
How do I apply my .el file to emacs? Can I do some linking from my .emacs-file?
My problem stems from Emacs inserting the coding system headers into source files containing non-ascii characters:
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
My coworkers do not like these headers being checked into our repositories. I don't want them inserted into my files because Emacs automatically detects that the file…
I just wanted opinion on good workflow using the emacs environment with clojure+swank+slime. I often find myself doing very repetitive keycommands and wonder if there is an obvious better way.
I include swank with lein and start my project using lein swank from shell. Then I connect with emacs and do the…
In Vim the * key in normal mode searches for the word under the cursor. In GNU Emacs the closest native equivalent would be:
C-s C-w
But that isn't quite the same. It opens up the incremental search mini buffer and copies from the cursor in the current buffer to the end of the word. In Vim you'd search…
Rectangular or column editing is possible in emacs. And it is very easy with cua-mode enabled.
Here are my references for this:
Here's a video that shows how to do it:

And see section "CUA rectangle support" here:

But I also wonder if I can do it…
