07:04 UTC (new) (history) 2014-10-10 Pretty printing Emacs Lisp code . . . . Marcin Borkowski – Typing (E)lisp code in Emacs is great – the editor takes care of proper indentation etc. Sometimes, however, when debugging, you need to print a long and/or deeply nested list. This is the kind of situation when the pretty printer in pp.el comes handy.

22:58 UTC (new) (history) 2014-10-04 View mode in read-only Emacs buffers . . . . Marcin Borkowski – An annoying thing is that if you press e.g. a letter key in a read-only buffer, you just get a message like Buffer is read-only: #<buffer whatever-buffer> If there is no use for most self-inserting keys anyway, why not use them for scrolling etc.?

21:19 UTC (new) (history) 2014-09-27 show-paren-mode . . . . Marcin Borkowski – For today, I only have a short tip. Sorry;-). I guess many Emacs users know about show-paren-mode, which highlights the closing paren (or brace, or bracket...) when the point is on the opening one (or the opening one when the point is right after the closing one).

11:07 UTC (new) (history) 2014-09-20 Smart ties in Emacs . . . . Marcin Borkowski – As all TeX users know, in all flavors of TeX you use the tilde (~), called a “tie” in The TeXbook, to denote non-breakable spaces. Of course, if you use Emacs, you may use some helpers, like tildify to insert them interactively or after typing/yanking some text.
