06:04 UTC (new) (history) 2017-04-01 compilation-in-progress . . . . Marcin Borkowski – I use AUCTeX pretty heavily; in fact, it was one of the first things I ever used in Emacs, way before I learned any Elisp or did any serious (or less serious) programming. Some time ago I noticed that sometimes (and I’m not sure what triggers this, though I have some suspicions) the word Compiling will stay in the modeline forever. It bugged me a bit, so I asked about it on the mailing list, and Oleh Krehel (of Ivy and Lispy fame) shared this simple solution: (setq compilation-in-progress nil). It’s not really a clean solution, but it works.

Marcin Borkowski – A short tip: if you want to quickly move the point to the top, center and/or bottom of the current window, press M-r once, twice or thrice. And or the added bonus, a numeric argument lets you place the point at any line (without scrolling the text). Quite handy (sometimes).

20:42 UTC (new) (history) 2017-03-13 Ibuffer . . . . Marcin Borkowski – Some day, when you have half an hour to spare, press M-x ibuffer RET and then h. Then take your jaw from the floor and put it back in place again.
