#equake — Public Fediverse posts

@emacsomancer The funny thing in my case is that I've never played Quake, and never experienced this kind of drop-down debug/cheat console. Still, about a decade ago I tried #Guake, and got hooked. Just recently I switched over to Tilda (Guake is misbehaving on Plasma 5).

In #Emacs, I have shell-pop.el configured to "drop down" an Eshell window in the top quarter of my frame. It works great, but nowhere near as slick as your #Equake, which I have to try.

New release of Equake has hit Melpa!

https://melpa.org/#/equake

Equake is a drop-down terminal in the style of Guake, Yakuake, implemented in Emacs Lisp.

Changelog:

- The Equake frame is destroyed when the last Equake etab associated with the frame is closed, and the tab numbering reset. (Re-invoking Equake after the frame is closed thus, as usual, creates a new frame. Tab numbering starts at ‘0’ again.)

- Add a convenience function, equake-restore-last-etab, to switch to the last used Equake etab when an Equake frame is viewing a non-Equake buffer (e.g. user has opened a file in the Equake frame). I recommend adding a keybinding for this. Perhaps to C-M-^.

- Another new convenience function, equake-close-tab-without-query, closes the current Equake tab (only if the current buffer is, in fact, an Equake tab) without prompting for further confirmations about running processes and so on. It’s bound to C-M-_ by default.
