Well this is not exactly Emacs. But Emacs related.
I will always like a lightweight Emacs clone. Emacsclient is good for desktop usage. But for server maintenance, where you spend 10 minutes on a box everyday, you won’t like the 100M monster eating up all your memory.
I’ve been using for this. And today I’ve found […]

Tabed browsing is one of the most outstanding feauter from Firefox over IE. So here’s how I switch tabs:
Most of the time I just swith to the left or right tab. I use the f4kc_NextTab and f4kc_PrevTab from the functions 4 Key Config extension.
When I have some more tabs, I use the switch tab function […]
I’ve used Mouseless Browsing when I don’t have a mouse present. However it is not good enough for dayly use because:
I don’t have a number pad and it’s hard to type numbers as my hands will slightly move away from its main area.
The default style makes the page a little crappy.
However today I’ve found another […]
One of the extension I use is Copy URL +. However on my FreeBSD it doesn’t work very good: it always add some “undefined” in the copied string.
Checking the code and I found when this extension checks the navigator.platform to see if “\r”, “\n”, o “\r\n” should be used in unction eol(), it doesn’t take […]
When using trac with subversion, sometime I need to edit the subversion log. For example, I’ve got used to mention the trac ticket number in the log, thanks to the trac intergration, this is really handful. However once I made a typo on the ticket number, and it gets really annoying. So here is how […]
Well it’s almost the same as let Emacs handle mailto: links. But we use amulecmd to handle the ed2k link this time.
A small script myamule looks like
#!/bin/sh
amulecmd –command=”add $1″
And in Firefox, set network.protocol-handler.external.ed2k to boolean true, and network.protocol-handler.app.ed2k to string /path/to/script/myamule. Firefox will ask if you want to use this external program, if you don’t […]
There are many download related extensions. And I use several of them.
The one I use most is download statusbar. It prevent the official download manager from showing and jsut use one line above the statusbar to show the download status. Basicly, that’s all I need: How many time is left before the download is finished. […]
I’m a man living in Emacs and I’ve used to use type-break to remind me to take a typing break:
;; type-break is causing trouble in batch mode
(if (not noninteractive)
(progn
;;;; Emacs reminds me to take typing breaks.
(require ‘type-break)
;; How often I should take breaks, in seconds.
(setq type-break-interval (* 60 60))
;; I’m busy, 5 minutes break […]
