When typing Esc within an Emacs window under Unity (Emacs 23 standard package), the sound is turned on/off, but Emacs does not receive the key.
How can I change (probably) unity such that the Esc and also the other function keys are interpreted by Emacs?
A very crude workaround that always works in (GNU) Emacs is to use C-[ in place of Esc.
The question Why is the meta key is not working wh
Hi comm,
I'd appreciate somebody could help me with this.
Running 'sudo emacs -nw ....' works, but does not give me any of the customizations in my ~/.emacs file. This is because emacs is looking in /home/root/.emacs? I created a soft link from my ~/.emacs to the root's home, but then emacs was not happy about other code it required in ~/.emacs.d/.
I've tried apt-get purging and reinstalling emacs, but if I run:
Code:
emacs ~/.bashrc
I get a blank file (emacs.d) that looks like this:
If I run the same command as root:
Code:
sudo emacs ~/.bashrc
I get the correct file that looks like this:
I've never understood the buffer thing, but emacs has worked great for me in the past.
I installed Emacs 24.1 from source and compiled in the directory /usr/local/src. But after that I got Emacs 24.2 from ppa:cassou. Now I have two versions of Emacs and I want to get rid of the older ones.
If have emacs and emacs-24.1 (both are the 24.1 version) in /usr/local/bin.
I got this trying to run emacs for the first time$ emacs
emacs: error while loading shared libraries: libgtk-3.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directoryUpdate: sudo ldconfig fixed the problem .
Hello,
I've compiled Emacs 24, but wanted to install into it ECB and some more modules available through RPM, however when I try to install it, yum shows that it is going to install emacs-common (which is both older and redundant, as I already have emacs installed). How can I tell it that Emacs is already present and there is no need to download another version?
Thanks.
Sometimes I justify text in emacs using C-u 70 M-x fill-region. I would like to have a function in .emacs file that has a parameter so that I can use a shortcut to call the function instead of having to do C-u 70 fill-region. I would have 2 shortcuts, one uses default 70 and another asks for a parameter. I'm very new to emacs programming but I've been using emacs for a while now.
I've just updated to 12.04. Everything works fine except for the latest custom-build emacs. It says now:
emacs: symbol lookup error: emacs: undefined symbol: gtk_window_set_has_resize_grip
So I've decided to re-build emacs.
