So after one frenzy #Emacs Saturday, earlier today the LLM commit has been removed from the Emacs git log. Thanks to the Emacs maintainers and #Savannah admins for handling this swiftly.

Hopefully this never happens again.

Im writing a Websocket service that has to send a keyboard layout. Instead of a separate Programm to maintain that layout, I think I will have the config file in #orgmode, where i can simply draw tha layout.

Duplicate a layout simply with cut and paste. Move keys around with cursor keys in #emacs

[Перевод] Хорошие инструменты — невидимы

Хороший инструмент должен быть незаметен, и разработчикам следует к этому стремиться. На деле же я нередко встречаю у них вредную привычку, с которой приходится бороться. Дело в том, что они преподносят недостатки инструмента как «увлекательные» головоломки, решение которых приносит удовольствие. Я же хочу, чтобы мои инструменты не создавали для меня «увлекательные» головоломки, а просто незаметно делали своё дело.

It is rather significant that this is in an org-mode code block.
I wouldn't omit that detail and I wouldn't call it "basic" in this case.

(I don't know how to submit bug reports about org mode.)

Anyone using the Arch build of Emacs?
There's a bunch of 404's even with the git version.

#Emacs 30's `customize-dirlocals` is neat. Can set project-local variables with the same widgetry of `customize-variables` along with its `:type` validation. One hitch: picking subdirectories produces a malformed `.dir-locals.el`.

(However, I hate that widgets do have M-TAB for completion and do not use completion-at-point)

I need help testing corfu-mouse-mode. Please tell me if it works for you or not, and your Emacs version and platform, and use the newest commit, either directly from git or from ELPA-devel or MELPA-snapshots.

This repository provides independently loadable Emacspeak speech interfaces for packages that are not fully supported in Emacspeak itself. The current extensions cover Corfu, Vertico, Which-Key, Markdown Mode, Helm, and agent-shell. The repository also provides optional native Windows speech and auditory-icon support for Emacspeak running under WSL.

@borkdude It's... 1970s technology; it was obnoxious and clunky even then (Eight Megabytres And Constant Swapping); it's Generaly Not Used Except by Middle Aged Computer Scientists; it has its own built in Lisp system which isn't dreadful.

I mean, you could convert a Model T Ford to electric, and it would be a cool hack; but it still wouldn't be an ergonomic modern car.

Yes, #Emacs can do it. But #Babashka or #Jolt or #Scittle or #CLJS or even #Clojure can do it better and faster, so why?

@borkdude It's certainly cool. And it means that you could (presumably?) call interesting pure #Clojure libraries from within #Emacs #Lisp.

However, I think it's probable that there are few pure #Clojure libraries for which there are not already good analogues that are native to #Emacs #Lisp.

@borkdude (my initial response was also meant jokingly. I'm not really a total #Emacs hater, I just play one on the Internet)

«Emacs is a Lispboard»

What would have happened if Emacs' default buffer had been a terminal emulator?

Today I talked about GNU Guix at MashhadLUG, our local Linux User Group. I’ve published the presentation files on GitHub. (Sadly, GitLab is unavailable for my country due to sanctions, and Codeberg is blocked by the Iranian government, otherwise I would have preferred to host them there.)

I’m a big fan of Emacs and Org mode. This presentation was written in Org and delivered using org-tree-slide. It was a really enjoyable experience :)
