Elnode is an asynchronous web server written in Emacs LISP. Emacs has had asynchronous socket programming facilities for some time and a few years ago asynchronous TCP server sockets were introduced. I couldn’t quite believe that no one had written an asynchronous webserver with EmacsLISP before. So now I have. When I started looking at [...]
The awesome pretty-mode for Emacs displays symbols of your choosing rather than text for specified patterns. For example if you have a lot of Greek letter names in your MATLAB code you might just have the symbol show up instead. After upgrading to Emacs version 23 on Windows (GNU Emacs 23.3.1 (i386-mingw-nt6.1.7600) of 2011-03-10 on [...]

Today I installed graphviz mode for Emacs. One of its features is that it will show you the rendered image in a buffer. When I tried it out, the image was opened as text. This is of course not what I wanted :). The Emacs user guide says here that to enable support on Windows [...]
While trying to set up Clojure under Cygwin I found that doing mixed-mode between Cygwin and Java isn’t very happy due to the ‘;’ vs ‘:’ in the classpath. This post (via this post) provided an obfuscated Ruby program to take care of that for you… thanks! #!/bin/ruby # Slightly obfuscated cygwin + windows java [...]
When you want to evaluate code inside of DrScheme, you hit the F5 key and the entire editor buffer gets evaluated inside of a new REPL. Unlike Emacs, the ability to send the current expression, region, or buffer to the REPL isn’t available. It might sound constricting, but in practice it is very nice because [...]
Maintenance of the Tuareg mode for Emacs has been taken over by some Jane Street Capital folks and can be found here on OCamlCore. (via caml-list)
The ‘list-colors-display’ function call displays a list of colors, how they look, and their RGB names in its own window. (via Got Emacs?)
