Gnu Emacs has become extremely dangerous to use with C modules.

And maybe even without them.

I'd like to see a board about Emacs. I'm surprised this place is empty.

24 posts and 5 image replies omitted. Click reply to view.

My child, the editor war is between Emacs and vi.

vim is the bastard creation of an Amiga-loving moron. It has very little of the spirit of vi, and it certainly in no way is "minimal" or in line with the "Unix philosophy". It's so far behind Emacs that it's not even funny.

So your posts about vim are not appropriate to this forum.

You are of course welcome to discuss evil-mode, and other vi implementations available within Emacs. They have much more of the vi-nature than vim ever will. :)

Da fuq. I honestly hadn't been introduced to the 8ch community until they butchered /emacs/

Welcome to 8chan.

I come back and see this. Reminds me of /tech/.

tbh, nano is more popular than both now. emacs is really unstable on modern systems. it's too much bloat for an editor and broken as an ide. i filed a bug report on ctrl-s not working 6 months ago and still….NOTHING.

I'm glad i quite using emacs when i did

According to the XEmacs beta mailing list, the development of it is now officially dead.

Does that make you happy, or sad? Or are you just "who gives a shit?"

What is your favorite package, /emacs/? Third-party or part of core.

Probably notmuch because it's so great. Elfeed is worth mentioning too.

The package I use the most is probably notmuch or org. The package I think is the coolest, though I haven't used it that much, is sx.

I'm not sure if it's a package, but I can't live without window-number.el. It's on the emacswiki.

Magit, Yasnippet, Helm are the first ones that come to mind.

I use hundreds of packages.
