I personally havent really used emacs for organizing, but I really like it for bash coding and writing software documenation in orgmode. I am even starting to get a little bit comfortable at writing my .emacs file but at some point I will have to do a lot of reorganizing and updating and I kind of dont want to do it (I still use .emacs and not emacs.d/init.el and all keybindings still use the legacy global-set-key command).

Apart from the work I am putting into it it is really great, because when I actually get to do stuff I can do so with great efficency. I am even starting to miss my emacs keybinds when not using emacs (especially ctrl-k for killing from your cursor position to the end of the line ctrl-a for jumping to the beginning of a line and ctrl-e for jumping to the end of a line). At this point when I am writing stuff in emacs (as example working on a bash script) I at maximum use my mouse for scrolling.

Fuck, I really did turn into the meme (and I am not even using it for longer than 4-5 months at maximum)___

    • Install the edit-server package for emacs (M-x list-packages, wait for the emacs package manager to load the list, go to edit-server, hit “i” to flag for install and “x” to execute, or M-x package-install and just type out “edit-server”).

    Jokes on you, I already mapped M-x package-install to S-p i.

    But that also sounds interesting. Will definitely try it out (and if its just for writing Lemmy comments)
