  • How to scroll the diff buffer easily in Emacs while point is on the minibuffer

    - by RamyenHead
    In Emacs, after a lot of editing, I press C-x s (save-some-buffers), then Emacs asks "Save file ...? (y,n,.... d ...)" for each file, I sometimes answer d (diff) to see the changes, but then it's not easy to scroll the diff buffer because the cursor is on the minibuffer. Scrollbar does not work. C-M-v works, but if I try to back-scroll by pressing C-M-- C-M-v, Emacs just says "Type C-h for help". How do I scroll the diff buffer in such cases?

  • how to stream audio and video files, but use any media player on Windows (without using Windows file

    - by RamyenHead
    I want to access and play media files on machine S (Windows XP) from machine C (Windows XP). Using Windows File Sharing ("share this folder" stuff), if it works, I would share the folder containing media files on machine S, and I would be able to play media files, sitting in front of C, using any media player I want. Windows somehow ensures that the remote files behave like local files. But Windows file sharing won't work for me, is there any alternative? If two machines were both Linux, I would install an SSH server on S and use Nautilus from C to access and play media files. The reason why I can't use Windows file sharing is, my campus use two different subnets, I have S and C on different subnets and it seems that the firewall governing the whole network in campus doesn't allow file sharing between different subnets. I tried changing Windows Firewall settings on S to allow C in, it still wouldn't work, so it must be the other firewall.

  • how to replace latex macros with their definitions (using latex)

    - by RamyenHead
    How can I replace all occurrence of user defined latex macros with their definitions? For example, given this file old.tex \newcommand{\blah}[2]{#1 \to #2} ... foo \blah{egg}{spam} bar ... how to generate the file below in an automatic way new.tex ... foo egg \to spam bar ... Instead of reimplementing latex macro logic with perl, can I use latex or tex engine itself to do this?

  • Emacs Lisp: how to set encoding for call-process

    - by RamyenHead
    I thought I knew how to set coding-system (or encoding): use process-coding-system-alist. Apparently, it's not working. ;; -*- coding: utf-8 -*- (require 'cl) (let ((process-coding-system-alist '("cygwin/bin/bash" . (utf-8-dos . utf-8-unix)))) (setq my-words (list "Lilo" "?_?" "_?" "?_" "?" "Stitch") my-cygwin-bash "C:/cygwin/bin/bash.exe" my-outbuf (get-buffer-create "*my cygwin bash echo test*") ) (with-current-buffer my-outbuf (goto-char (point-max)) (loop for word in my-words do (insert (concat "echo " word "\n")) (call-process my-cygwin-bash nil my-outbuf nil "-c" (concat "echo " word))) ) (display-buffer my-outbuf) ) Running the above code, the output is this: echo Lilo Lilo echo ?_? /usr/bin/bash: -c: line 0: unexpected EOF while looking for matching `"' /usr/bin/bash: -c: line 1: syntax error: unexpected end of file echo _? /usr/bin/bash: -c: line 0: unexpected EOF while looking for matching `"' /usr/bin/bash: -c: line 1: syntax error: unexpected end of file echo ?_ /usr/bin/bash: $'echo \346\267\205?': command not found echo ? /usr/bin/bash: -c: line 0: unexpected EOF while looking for matching `"' /usr/bin/bash: -c: line 1: syntax error: unexpected end of file echo Stitch Stitch Anything sent to cygwin in unicode is failing (MS Windows, Korean).

  • an emacs command to open a new instance of emacs

    - by RamyenHead
    How can I make a cross-platform emacs command that opens another instance of emacs with -q option? The reason why I need such a command is that it would be easy to modify the command to make it open another instance of emacs with -q and -l option so that the new instance loads an el file that I am editing with the old instance.

  • Emacs on Windows: how to protect built-in el files from being accidentally edited

    - by RamyenHead
    On Linux, they are all read only, so no problem. But on MS Windows, what happens is like this: I get curious about the definition of the command isearch-forward, I type C-h f isearch-forward and click on the link isearch.el from the help to get to the definition of the function, and while I am reading its definition, I press C-h or C-c many times, but I set Caps Lock as another Ctrl key, so sometimes it happens that I release Caps Lock too early, in which case C-h or C-c becomes inserting h or c, sometimes I notice that and undo it, but sometimes I don't notice it, and I even save them all with C-x s. What is a good way to protect the built-in el files from me on MS Windows?

  • Emacs Lisp: How to use ad-get-arg and ad-get-args?

    - by RamyenHead
    I'm not sure I am using ad-get-args and ad-get-arg right. For example, the following code doesn't work. (defun my-add (a b) (+ a b)) (defadvice my-add (after my-log-on activate) (message "my-add: %s" (ad-get-args))) (my-add 1 2) The last expression causes an error: Debugger entered--Lisp error: (void-function ad-get-args). The following doesn't work either. (defun my-substract (a b) (- a b)) (defadvice my-substract (around my-log-on activate) (message "my-substract: %s" (ad-get-arg 0)) (ad-do-it)) (my-substract 10 1) The defadvice gives a warning: Warning: `(setq ad-return-value (ad-Orig-my-substract a b))' is a malformed function And the last expression gives an error: Debugger entered--Lisp error: (invalid-function (setq ad-return-value (ad-Orig-my-substract a b))) (setq ad-return-value (ad-Orig-my-substract a b))() I was trying to use defadvice to watch start-process arguments for debugging purposes and I found my way of using ad-get-arg didn't work.
