Marcin Borkowski – It is a known thing that running commands that control the terminal like top in Eshell is problematic – Eshell plays well with commands that take stdin in and put stdout out, but any control codes are just displayed verbatim. Happily, there is a way around it.

• 17:59 UTC (new) (history) 2018-10-14 Magit and C-u i . . . . Marcin Borkowski – Last time I mentioned that I use multiple backup copies of my .env file. One problem with that approach was they they cluttered my Git status (or the magit-status window). I could put the relevant pattern in my .gitignore file, but I didn’t want to bother other programmers in the team with peculiarities of my personal setup.

• 06:24 UTC (new) (history) 2018-10-06 The version-control variable . . . . Marcin Borkowski – As many of us know, Emacs has a habit (annoying for most people, I guess) of making backup copies of files it saves. Happily, it doesn’t kick in in version-controlled files (and most of my files fall into this category nowadays). But there are situations when I actually do want the backup copies.

• 06:59 UTC (new) (history) 2018-09-30 add-dir-local-variable - conclusion . . . . Marcin Borkowski – In the last two posts, I wrote about Emacs directory variables. Last week, the conclusion was that there is no easy way for add-dir-local-variable to use the dotted pair notation in the .dir-locals.el file. Well, I was wrong again.
