I'm working on something big: A new package for async communication between R and Emacs. The output should be a terminal run in Emacs, at the level of Arf and Radian.
If you use #rstats on #emacs stay tunned

Der #emacs und #orgmode basics Workshop heute bei den Linuxtagen war richtig interessant. Eine Welt tut sich da auf! :emacs: :orgmode:
Danke @…, war richtig gut gemacht.

Yes, #Emacs. You can render SVG. Very clever. But I actually want to *edit the text* of the file (you know, in a text editor. Like... oh, $DEITY, never mind).
Yes, Emacs, you almost certainly do have some weird key combination to switch back to ACTUALLY BEING A TEXT EDITOR, but I don't know it, and, being Emacs, you're too damned arrogant to make it discoverable.
Typing `<esc&…

An Emacs window. You know, Emacs -- the 'Editor Macros' text editor. Editing an SVG file. Except, it isn't. It is very prettily, and accurately, rendering the file. (The file shows a recursively drawn tree, and a recursive spiral). 

If I wanted to render the file, I have lots of excellent tools to do that. I WANT AN EXCELLENT TOOL TO EDIT TEXT, and otherwise just stay out of my way! 

Stupid piece of shit.

I have just released version 1.0.0 of ESR: an R tree sitter mode for #emacs
It is the first version independent of #ESS although tree sitter can be paired with ESS.
ESR's interaction mode can use comint or

Looking at #Emacs tutorials to possibly recommend to students, I’m sometimes amazed at the mentions of basic commands that I’ve never had a use for in 30 years of emacsing… Not that I don’t know them, but, well, I don’t need them.
Case in point: next-buffer and previous-buffer. For me, buffers don’t have an order, so they don’t make any sense to me.

After making my network simpler I thought I would fill the time by yak shaving my #Emacs config and throwing my muscle memory out of the window by trying to replace evil with #meow.
We will see if this is a good idea.

What is the correct action when #Emacs asks “Discard edits and reread from “path”?
It always makes me feel I'm losing data.

If you're facing weird effects or poor performance when working with #Emacs (or #orgmode) and you're having a customized setup:
One thing that may solve some issues is removing your elpa/melpa packages and let it install from scratch.
It might be a good idea not to mix up

You are a vim/neovim user. You have a few plugins installed.
How do you remind yourself of those that you are not using on a regular basis?
I guess the question applies to any text editor or IDE.

So I had this idea, if I could make the #Emacs #OrgRoamUI accessible on the LAN, I could potentially navigate my notes from any device anywhere!
It was listed in the GitHub as a request, but the advice there didn't work, it only acted as a redirect to nowhere. I could change the url from localhost to the lan name, opened 8080 in ufw and then port-forwarded with
sudo socat TCP-LISTEN:8080,fork TCP:localhost:35901
And that let me see the UI, but only the controls, no nodes, no notes. Noting the websocket claiming port 35903, I removed :host (to use all interfaces) and opened ufw for LAN access to that port which all /seemed/ really logical, but …
I still see only the controls, no nodes or notes 😞
