🎩 So you've decided to transform #Emacs into #Pixar Studios by bolting a GPU onto it, because nothing screams "productivity" like crossfading buffers and #animated cursors. 🤡 Meanwhile, your #AI sidekick is probably wondering if its life purpose is to help you reinvent the wheel—now with extra pixels! 🚀

🌗 我是如何為 Emacs 打造 GPU 後端
➤ 從 CPU 瓶頸到 GPU 加速：一場對 Emacs 顯示架構的重構挑戰
✤ https://en.andros.dev/blog/4b707a03/how-i-built-a-gpu-backend-for-emacs/
軟體開發者 Andros Fenollosa 對於 Emacs 仍依賴 CPU 進行文字渲染感到好奇，進而開啟了一場大膽的實驗：為 Emacs 構建一個 GPU 加速的顯示後端。他成功地在不修改 Emacs 核心繪製邏輯的前提下，透過抽象出一層「圖形驅動接口」，實現了 macOS 的 Metal 後端與 Linux 的 OpenGL 後端。這不僅解決了渲染效能問題，還為 Emacs 帶來了影片播放、流暢的動畫光標及緩衝區切換過場效果，證明瞭透過現代圖形 API 提升傳統編輯器效能的可行性。
+ 這實在太瘋狂了！能在 Emacs 緩衝區裡直接播 YouTube 影片是我們很多人夢寐以求的功能。
+ 作者堅持「像素對齊」（pixel parity）的態度令人敬佩

In Emacs, a common behavior that most users internalize into muscle memory is refreshing a buffer, typically with the key binding 'g'. While there are auto-update features for different modes that can minimize this, invariably "to be sure", you end up manually refreshing.

If you haven't heard of run-at-time in Emacs, now you know. Also included is a demo of using run-at-time to send yourself a future notification in macOS.

#Emacs

I'm working on an #Emacs package that wraps shell tooling to run via #Toolbox / #Distrobox (e.g. toolbox-eglot, toolbox-shell, toolbox-compile) while keeping buffers local via TRAMP.

I’m considering adding minor mode that transparently redirects commands to their toolbox- equivalent. Not sure about the UX or implementation though: advicing feels hacky, pre-command-hook feels inconsistent (and also a CPU hog).

Started using ghostel in #emacs rather than vterm as a terminal backend for claude-code-ide.el and it seems great. Needed some minor configuration to have god-mode toggling properly, and the #nix build of everything had one stumbling block (need the package from nixpkgs rather than the emacs-overlay as the former builds the native library).

I'm looking into integrating #opencode with #emacs and every other day there's so many new terms being thrown around that it's hard to keep track of (coding agent, AI harness, etc.).

I don't wish to use an agentic workflow where my files are directly modified by the LLM but rather a chat like approach (similar to how gptel works). Agent-shell seems to have a direct integration with opencode but then again, it's focused on agentic workflow.

Happy to hear suggestions and what others are using.

Ummmm...some staring and Frank Sinatra's number 🎧🎶

ICYMI, net-utils is a thing in Emacs. Yet another reason to not need a shell.

@hgrsd And if you go to #vim in order to avoid chords of keys, #emacs just makes no sense.
