#Emacs integration for the SpaceCadetDeck works also.
It can execute every command that it can send via emacsclient -e and it gets every mode-change or whatever emacs puts on the d-bus

The connection between the SpaceCadet Deck and the Deckserver is now stable as hell. It even survives hibernating the server or the Android device.

And I already implemented the d-bus function so that #Emacs can send messages to the Deckserver which then serves a new layout depending on major-mode or else to the client.

Now for some eLisp to test it.

r-ts-mode is now available on Melpa. It has the possibility of being used with ESS but it can also be used independently. A big milestone for the #rstats community of #emacs users.

occasionally in #emacs flycheck just decides that I want a different syntax checker and I'm not really sure why. today it's decided pyright. and I guess I'll just globally disable it, but I wish I knew _why_ this happened

Just did `diff-hl-set-reference-rev` in #Emacs and I could practically hear Cave Johnson telling me that now I'm thinking with Portals

#mastodonEl #emacs #lisp

hey programming nerds, i am considering moving from being a hobbyist Elisp/CL programmer into doing some more professional work. probably in webdev land.

do you have any tips for how to do so? what to learn/polish up on, how to showcase self, or related things, or resources for doing same, etc. does one need to do a bootcamp to learn stuff, or to become employable? (for context: i don't have a background in stem, but rather humanities. currently work as a translator. am self-taught in lisp stuff and feel my blind spots pretty acutely.)

i assume i need to focus on python, sql, js, or other similar things, but perhaps this is not necessarily so? i condered learning clojure properly, but it seems a higher barrier to entry also, job-wise...

finally found something? that works to disable click+drag highlighting in evil mode in emacs

I often click to change the cursor location or to ensure the terminal is the active window; I also click as a twitch. I also apparently include a dragging motion when I do -_-

for whatever reason, it wasn't working yesterday but seems to now (maybe the snippet about ignoring the mouse-down event in evil mode did the trick; didn't have it added before...)

;; YAY IT WORKS
;; maybe... kill the mouse highlight, maybe

I've really enjoyed reading #EmacsCarnival posts for quite a while now. When I saw @chiply announce "The Search For Knowledge" as the topic for August, I thought I might have something useful/interesting to contribute. At the very least, I'm looking forward to reading everyone else's posts!

Continuing with the theme of some more adventurous #emacs config updates, here are some notes on writing a custom #ediff session group entry point.

I ended up with a (poor!) re-implementation of `jj squash —interactive` and a long list of follow up TODOs… time will tell if this was a good idea or not! 😅

(I’m aware there are *many* excellent jj packages for Emacs already, but I’m doing things the hard way as an excuse to tinker with some non-trivial #elisp)
