So you’re telling me they became a vending machine in a dungeon?

Guess I’ll pronounce it Kh Duh from now on!

Found the KDE user!

This. Takaichi is literally Abe again. Conservative, ultra liberal economy and WW2 crimes negationism, all the good stuff… Nothing ever changes.

Such a good collection of resources! Thanks for sharing!

Sounds an awful lot like what a tankie would say

Neko-san!

Came here to say that. If you actually plan to daily a meme distro Nyarch is probably your best bet imo!

“ It’ll be fixed in 1h. 30min if you leave the room.”

FIFY

Thanks you for your attention to this matter!

Sweet! It’s actually my main language. C mode is built-in so no concern on that side.

Some general advice:

• I leaned it way too late, but you can use M-x compile and then type your build command (make clean && make all) instead of using a terminal to compile your project.
• Try to learn a bit about Makefiles, it’s useful. Avoid cmake like plague.
• C is great for embedded, so you should look up TRAMP if that’s your use case; it basically removes the need for SSH-ing from a shell.

To have Emacs behave like an IDE:

• Install clang17 clang17-extra-tools bear on the host system.
• Configure eglot and company in your Emacs config:

(use-package eglot)
(add-hook 'c-mode-hook 'eglot-ensure)
(with-eval-after-load 'eglot
  (add-to-list 'eglot-server-programs
               '((c-mode c++-mode)
                 . ("clangd"))))

(use-package company)
(add-hook 'after-init-hook 'global-company-mode)

• Use the bear tool (ex. bear --config bear_config.json -- make all) to make the non-trivial project understandable by Emacs. Since it re-uses your Makefile, it even works for cross-compilation!

Good luck!

Sweet, I’m editing the OP. Thanks for the input!

no no McS. et al., PhD is mf actual family name. Trying a bit too hard to get a great academic career.

Best of both worlds

Shameless self-promotion

Emacs btw

Okay so here’s the thing: Emacs runs best on Linux and MacOS (allegedly, bc UNIX-like) but it is more difficult to make it do what you want on Windows (afaik, never tried this). You’ll probably need WSL.

So if you have to stick with Windows, I’d suggest to search specifically for configurations and advice from other people who have done this. It will give you a base for installing and probably running a custom configuration.

From there, that my point 2), you should focus on trying and making YOUR workflow to run in Emacs. I really suggest to focus on one thing at the time and configuring it until it works the way you want. Otherwise you’ll end up with many half-backed systems and that’s frustrating.

What is your main use-case then? Maybe I can give some more precise advice if I’m familiar with it!

Thanks! I just added spaces in the parentheses. It should work better now.

Interesting for sure, but I would not recommend going for most of these packages unless you are already very familiar with Emacs.

Here are the steps I would recommend if you find motivation to learn the editor:

1. Install it, learn the basic use and navigation
2. Focus on learning and configuring it for your main use-case (writing code in a specific language, taking notes, writing papers, playing Tetris, etc.). This might take a while.
3. Question life, re-try VSCode and get instantly grossed out.
4. ???
5. Try weird packages, moving most of you digital life inside Emacs.

Enjoy =)
