Neat links from Paul Harper, who couldn’t participate in the voice chat: I am writing in to share my ‘discovery of the week’ which was J. Alexander Branham’s Blog and his dotemacs on Github. He is a PhD Candidate at UT-Austin in the Department of Government. He has some very good posts on using Emacs for Markdown, LaTeX and R for academic types. It complements Kiern Healy’s one for Social Scientists, and Vikas Rawal’s Orgpaper.

Puneeth Chaganti 9:33 PM Hi everyone.

Puneeth Chaganti 9:36 PM I use imapfilter for my non-gmail account.
Diego Berrocal 9:36 PM what about the gmail one?
Will Monroe 9:36 PM these are excellent suggestions for a new gnus user Puneeth, thank you for org2blog!
Puneeth Chaganti 9:37 PM I don’t yet use gmail with mu4e. Just not sure how long downloading all my mail would take.
Diego Berrocal 9:38 PM https://mosh.mit.edu/#techinfo ^ better ssh
Will Monroe 9:39 PM Puneeth, I’ve used mu4e with offlineimap to download lots of gmail. It did take a lot of time for ~4GB to download.
Puneeth Chaganti 9:40 PM Yeah, I’m also subscribed to a lot of lists that are filterd out using email filters, but I’m afraid getting new mail also would be really slow. I have a better internet connection these days. May be I should try.
Diego Berrocal 9:41 PM doesn’t gnus freeze your emacs sometimes?
me 9:41 PM I’ve been using gmane.org for many mailing lists. The web interface has been a bit wonky, but the NNTP through Gnus seems okay.
Diego Berrocal 9:41 PM it did on me last time I used it (years ago) Link to Window Manager: https://github.com/ch11ng/exwm

Diego Berrocal 9:49 PM unfortunately it’s not in my config anymore I’ll try to make a blog post
Daniel Gopar 9:50 PM sweet \o/ Let me know if you end up creating a post

Text chat:

Eric Hanchrow 8:56 PM I’m so much more comfortable with text than video … if other people join, will I see their icons?
me 8:56 PM Yup. Text chat is totally cool, it gets saved and posted too. and I can read things into the audio for people just listening to the stream (Livestream viewers won’t see the text chat during the hangout – only people in the actual Hangout will see it, so that’s why I repeat cool stuff. )
Eric Hanchrow 8:57 PM uh … so “livestream” is something different from Hangout? :-\ livestream must be “read only”
me 8:58 PM Yup, livestream (Youtube, etc.) is read only
Eric Hanchrow 8:58 PM ah dinnertime already!
Puneeth Chaganti 9:09 PM Hi everyone.

Puneeth Chaganti 9:41 PM https://github.com/punchagan/clip2org I have to head off folks! I’ll catch up with video later. Have a good day/night!
me 9:57 PM See you!
Dave Marquardt 10:13 PM Sacha, what was the name of that mode that scatters tasks? I think I saw something like that in orgbox…. Now I see it in the Org info. Thanks! Thanks for setting it up!

Paul Harper 2:41 PM Not sure if this might help. Setting up Emacs key mappings on Windows Outlook link (blogs.adobe.com)
me 2:42 PM http://emacsblog.org/2007/05/10/emacs-key-bindings-in-windows/ suggests XKeymacs, but I don’t know if it will work with recent versions of Windows. http://www.cam.hi-ho.ne.jp/oishi/indexen.html
Mond Beton 2:44 PM thank you
Rogelio Zarate 2:48 PM Too many opinions on how to do things, example keybing on emacs/os x
me 2:50 PM link (emacs.stackexchange.com) may be helpful if you want it to reuse an existing Emacs if possible
Daniel Gopar 2:58 PM https://github.com/gopar/.emacs.d/blob/master/init.el#L442
Paul Harper 2:59 PM Something for beginners like me. A course in research tools which includes some clear videos on using Emacs. Kurt Schwehr put the course on YouTube (linked in note) and the course is in org mode. The Course itself is GIS focused. You can download the whole thing with Mercurial. Instructions on the page. I found it very helpful when I started. http://vislab-ccom.unh.edu/~schwehr/rt/
Philip Stark 3:02 PM What’s GIS?
me 3:03 PM Phil: Hmm, something like http://emacs.stackexchange.com/questions/608/evil-map-keybindings-the-vim-way using tags?

Philip Stark 3:07 PM http://elpa.gnu.org/packages/ggtags.html
Daniel Gopar 3:09 PM so im learning elisp. Does elisp have any ways of creating private/public variables? or is everything exposed once you run the require command on the file?
Philip Stark 3:09 PM https://github.com/skeeto/skewer-mode
Rogelio Zarate 3:14 PM How do you handle projects, like in Sublime, do you use Projectile or Perspective?
