While it sounds unbelievable, it’s actually believable; it is in fact the thing most worth believing. I wish to all my Catholic readers the joy coming from Our Lord’s Resurrection; the joy which will last much longer than our life on this earth. To all the rest I wish that you may find that joy. I hope to see all of you in Heaven one day! As usual, I am going to offer a decade of Rosary for all people reading this. Hallelujah!

• 12:58 UTC (new) (history) 2017-04-09 Quickly loading and finding your elisp files . . . . Marcin Borkowski – This is a rather obvious hint – at least with hindsight – but someone might find it useful. If you’re like me, you may have a bunch of short elisp files with various small utilities you have written yourself in the past few years. For some reason, you may not want to load them at startup (maybe you want your Emacs to start as fast as posibble, maybe you don’t want to pollute the namespace with things that are only occasionally useful…).

• 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.

• 19:06 UTC (new) (history) 2017-03-27 Moving to a certain line on the screen . . . . 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).

• 20:56 UTC (new) (history) 2017-03-18 Deleting all instances of a LaTeX environment . . . . Marcin Borkowski – Today, someone asked on the AUCTeX-devel mailing list about a way to delete (or comment out) all the instances of certain environment. Here’s my solution.
