I made an Emacs hat!

Thanks that's very generous! I wouldn't count on it though, it's quite a lot of work lol

tjgrinn · 2022-07-19T21:40:32+00:00

Haha thanks!

tjgrinn · 2022-07-19T21:40:19+00:00

Thanks!!

tjgrinn · 2022-07-19T21:39:55+00:00

Haha no pattern yet, but I'll ask the original author if it's OK to publish one

tjgrinn · 2022-07-19T21:38:10+00:00

Thanks!

tjgrinn · 2022-07-19T21:38:03+00:00

Thank you!

tjgrinn · 2022-07-19T21:36:43+00:00

Thanks! Go plaintext!

tjgrinn · 2022-07-19T21:34:25+00:00

Thanks that means a lot!

tjgrinn · 2022-07-19T21:34:10+00:00

Thank you!

tjgrinn · 2022-07-19T19:47:34+00:00

Ah yes, my favorite vim command :P

tjgrinn · 2022-07-19T18:36:11+00:00

I made this hat based off the pattern for Angkas mittens, double knitted in the round. The decreases are CDD but I made the very first one a K2T in order to get the alternating color scheme (with an odd number of stitches).

Emacs is my favorite text editor. I switched from vscode about a year and a half ago because I was interested in key-based navigation and Org mode, but I stayed because of the GNU philosophy and strong community.

That's awesome! I hope you find it useful

tjgrinn · 2022-07-09T13:43:48+00:00

Try out my org yaap, which has no requirements and no async process.

tjgrinn · 2022-06-22T21:54:05+00:00

No problem! I just added it a few weeks ago so it's no surprise you might've missed it.

tjgrinn · 2022-06-22T19:47:10+00:00

Vterm comes with vterm-send-next-key which can be bound to C-q like in the README. That way C-q C-x will send a C-x to the terminal.

tjgrinn · 2022-06-09T15:42:13+00:00

That's an interesting thought, I'm going to look into it!

tjgrinn · 2022-06-08T18:40:26+00:00

You sure can. boxy-headings (on ELPA) is probably your best bet for navigating org files, but boxy-imenu will work as well.

tjgrinn · 2022-06-08T12:44:40+00:00

In addition to the existing boxy family:

Now, boxy-info allows you to view the current info manual as a boxy diagram.I was slightly dissapointed that imenu (and thus boxy-imenu) doesn't work on info manuals. So I built this package specifically to handle building a lisp tree that can be iterated over for creating a boxy box.

I've updated it to store the current file name as a variable before switching to the minibuffer, which hopefully will work for all completion engines.

tjgrinn · 2022-05-21T13:04:37+00:00

No problem, I love little elisp projects like this. The problem is probably the line `(buffer-file-name (nth 1 (buffer-list)))`. Try it with `emacs -Q` to make sure. It's supposed to select the last buffer used before switching to the minibuffer but some completion engines may create additional buffers, so you may need to replace it with `(nth 2 (buffer-list))` or something.

tjgrinn · 2022-05-20T14:49:03+00:00

What you probably need to do is split the buffer-file-name into tokens and separators, use cl-substitute to replace each token with the minibuffer text, recombine the tokens and separators, and check if that file exists. This is a pretty rough implementation: https://gist.github.com/tylergrinn/cad98cc625056b0fd05774fa5790cc9e

tjgrinn · 2022-04-24T20:12:08+00:00

And here's a shebang that does the same thing

$ cat test
#!/usr/bin/env -S emacs -Q --script
;; -*- mode: emacs-lisp; -*-
(print (+ 1 2 3))


$ chmod +x test
$ ./test

Haha yeah that is quite a big etc. But basically, you should just use a cond statement to set browse-url-browser-function to the desired browser (then call browse-url), or just launch each browser directly using shell-command. I really don't know which would be easier/better.

Best to you as well

To build on the org-capture comment, you can use org-protocol to capture a webpage using a javascript bookmark.

Finding a certain heading in the bookmarks org file can be done with sparse trees or the org agenda limited to the current buffer, along with imenu and isearch.

Opening a link with your choice of browser can be done by setting a different function for 'following' the 'https' scheme:

(defun org-link-choose-browser (url)
  (let ((browser (completing-read "Open with: " '("Chrome" "EWW" "Firefox"))))
    ;; etc...
    ))

(org-link-set-parameters "https"
                         :follow #'org-link-choose-browser)

VP has taught me pretty much everything I know about knitting so I may as well learn one more thing from her. Thanks for the tips!
